Abstract—Video simulcasting enables a sender to generate replicated streams of different rates, serving receivers of diverse access bandwidths. As replication introduces noticeab...
The presence of uncertainty in the real world makes robustness to be a desired property of solutions to constraint satisfaction problems. Roughly speaking, a solution is robust if...
