We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...
RankBoost is a recently proposed algorithm for learning ranking functions. It is simple to implement and has strong justifications from computational learning theory. We describe...

We study the MIMO broadcast channel and compare the achievable throughput for the optimal strategy of dirty paper coding to that achieved with sub-optimal and lower complexity lin...
Several scientic bottlenecks have been identied in existing component-based approaches. em, we focus on the identication of a relevant abstraction for the component expression ...
We present two new algorithms for finding optimal strategies for discounted, infinite-horizon, Deterministic Markov Decision Processes (DMDP). The first one is an adaptation of...
