This paper bears on the design and the quantitative evaluation of MAC mechanisms for wireless ad-hoc networks with performance guarantees. By this, we mean mechanisms where each ac...
Keyword queries over structured databases are notoriously ambiguous. No single interpretation of a keyword query can satisfy all users, and multiple interpretations may yield over...

We study Facility Location games, where a number of facilities are placed in a metric space based on locations reported by strategic agents. A mechanism maps the agents' locat...
Stochastic Flow Models (SFMs) are stochastic ystems that abstract the dynamics of complex discrete event systems involving the control of sharable resources. SFMs have been used to...
Recently, the covariance region descriptor [1] has been proved robust and versatile for a modest computational cost. It enables efficient fusion of different types of features. Ba...
