Optimal sampling algorithms for frequency estimation in distributed data
—Consider a distributed system with n nodes where each node holds a multiset of items. In this paper, we design sampling algorithms that allow us to estimate the global frequency...

Distributed Uniform Sampling in Unstructured Peer-to-Peer Networks
— Uniform sampling in networks is at the core of a wide variety of randomized algorithms. Random sampling can be performed by modeling the system as an undirected graph with asso...

Compact Samples for Data Dissemination
We consider data dissemination in a peer-to-peer network, where each user wishes to obtain some subset of the available information objects. In most of the modern algorithms for su...

Estimating Sum by Weighted Sampling
We study the classic problem of estimating the sum of n variables. The traditional uniform sampling approach requires a linear number of samples to provide any non-trivial guarante...
