In this paper, we describe a new algorithm for sampling solutions from a uniform distribution over the solutions of a constraint network. Our new algorithm improves upon the Sampli...
We present collaborative peer-to-peer algorithms for the problem of approximating frequency counts for popular items distributed across the peers of a large-scale network. Our alg...
Abstract. Distributed computing must adapt its techniques to networks of mobile agents. Indeed, we are facing new problems like the small size of memory and the lack of computation...
Sketches--data structures for probabilistic, duplicate insensitive counting--are central building blocks of a number of recently proposed network protocols, for example in the con...
We present a deterministic approximation algorithm to compute logarithm of the number of `good' truth assignments for a random k-satisfiability (k-SAT) formula in polynomial ...
