We review chessboard distributions for modeling partially specified finite-dimensional random vectors. Chessboard distributions can match a given set of marginals, a given covaria...
ms, to use abstraction mappings to prove probabilistic properties, and to apply random walk theory in a distributed computational setting. We apply all of these techniques to analy...
d bins abstraction and works in two phases. The main novelty of the work is in the first phase where the number of contending processes is reduced in a controlled manner. Probabil...
