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...
PuppetCast is a protocol for secure peer sampling in large-scale distributed systems. A peer sampling protocol continuously provides each node in the system with a uniform random ...

In [11], Kalai investigated the probability of a rational outcome for a generalized social welfare function (GSWF) on three alternatives, when the individual preferences are unifo...
We study the average number of transitions in Glushkov automata built from random regular expressions. This statistic highly depends on the probabilistic distribution set on the e...
