This paper derives an improved sphere-packing (ISP) bound for finite-length error-correcting codes whose transmission takes place over symmetric memoryless channels, and the codes...
The framework of this paper is the formal specification and proof of applications distributed on symmetric interconnection networks, e.g. the torus or the hypercube. The algorithms...
- Symmetric level-index arithmetic was introduced to overcome the problems of overflow and underflow in scientific computations. A hybrid SLI-FLP number system, together with some ...
Performing distributed consensus in a network has been an important research problem for several years, and is directly applicable to sensor networks, autonomous vehicle formation...

We study a peer-to-peer backup system, where users offer some of their storage space to provide service for the others. The economic model for such a system is different from the o...
