An (r, , )-locally decodable code encodes a k-bit message x to an N-bit codeword C(x), such that for every i [k], the i-th message bit can be recovered with probability 1 - , by ...
In a frequency selective slow-fading channel in a MIMO system, the channel matrix is of the form of a block matrix. This paper proposes a method to calculate the limit of the eige...
We consider algorithms for load balancing on unreliable machines. The objective is to optimize the two criteria of minimizing the makespan and minimizing job reassignments in resp...
: We adapt a combinatorial optimization algorithm, extremal optimization (EO), for the search problem in computational protein design. This algorithm takes advantage of the knowled...
— This paper studies a variant of the classical problem of “writing on dirty paper” in which the sum of the input and the interference, or dirt, is multiplied by a random var...
