Probabilistic Argumentation Systems and Abduction
Probabilistic argumentation systems are based on assumption-based reasoning for obtaining arguments supporting hypotheses and on probability theory to compute probabilities of sup...

Competition and Cooperation between Nodes in Delay Tolerant Networks with Two Hop Routing
This paper revisits the two-hop forwarding policy in delay tolerant networks (DTNs) using simple probabilistic arguments. Closed form expressions are derived for the main performan...

Tolerant Locally Testable Codes
An error-correcting code is said to be locally testable if it has an efficient spot-checking procedure that can distinguish codewords from strings that are far from every codeword...

Free Bits, PCPs, and Nonapproximability-Towards Tight Results
This paper continues the investigation of the connection between probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) and the approximability of NP-optimization problems. The emphasis is on p...
