The classical group testing problem asks to determine at most d defective elements in a set of n elements, by queries to subsets that return Yes if the subset contains some defecti...
—The number of real-world applications that require QoS guarantees is constantly increasing and they often follow the publish/subscribe (pub/sub) messaging paradigm, which provid...

Fixing software bugs has always been an important and timeconsuming process in software development. Fixing concurrency bugs has become especially critical in the multicore era. H...
Abstract. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) deployed in hostile environments suffer from a high rate of node failure. We investigate the effect of such failure rate on network conn...
—We consider network reliability in layered networks where the lower layer experiences random link failures. In layered networks, each failure at the lower layer may lead to mult...
In this paper we analyze the computational power of random geometric networks in the presence of random (edge or node) faults considering several important network parameters. We ...
A novel method (the V-shaped curve) is presented to predict the failure probability of anisotropic conductive film (ACF) in IC/substrate assemblies. The Poisson function is used t...
—The methodologies to calculate failure probability and to estimate the reliability of fatigue loaded structures are developed. The applicability of the methodologies is evaluate...
In this paper we present a randomized complexity theoretic model for those epidemics propagated via short-distance close contact. We prove that the contact-based epidemics problems...
One of the fundamental problems in distributed computing is how to efficiently perform routing in a faulty network in which each link fails with some probability. This paper inves...
