Silence-Based Communication

Christina Fragouli

Communication complexity---the minimum amount of communication required---of computing a function of data held by several parties is studied. A communication model where silence is used to convey information is introduced. For this model the worst-case and ...

Game Theory in Communications

Vojislav Gajic

Multi-user communication theory typically studies the fundamental limits of communication systems, and considers communication schemes that approach or even achieve these limits. The functioning of many such schemes assumes that users always cooperate, eve ...

Communication-based Leashing of Real Flying Robots

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Sabine Hauert, Severin Leven

Aerial robots are often required to remain within the communication range of a base station on the ground to exchange commands, sensor data or as a safety mechanism. For this purpose, we propose a minimal control strategy for steering flying robots using o ...

SunFloor 3D: A Tool for Networks on Chip Topology Synthesis for 3D Systems on Chips

Giovanni De Micheli, Luca Benini, Srinivasan Murali, Ciprian Seiculescu

Three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D-ICs) are a promising approach to address the integration challenges faced by current systems on chips (SoCs). Designing an efficient network on chip (NoC) interconnect for a 3-D SoC that meets not only the applicat ...

Computer Code as a Medium for Human Communication: Are Programming Languages Improving?

Gilles Dubochet

Programming languages are not only useful to command computers, they also increasingly are a medium for human communication. I will use the framework of distributed cognition to discuss how knowledge is shared in a team of programmers and to show that comp ...

Collaborative coverage using a swarm of networked miniature robots

Alcherio Martinoli, Nicolaus Correll, Samuel Rutishauser

We study distributed coverage of environments with unknown extension using a team of networked miniature robots analytically and experimentally. Algorithms are analyzed by incrementally raising the abstraction level starting from physical robots, to realis ...

Mobility-centric design of collaborative transportation systems

Embedded sensors and actuators are revolutionizing the way we perceive and interact with the physical world. Current research on such Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) has focused mostly on distributed sensing and data gathering. The next step is to move from ...

On the Specification of Partitionable Group Membership

André Schiper, Stefan Pleisch, Olivier Rütti

Group communication in partitionable systems has been the focus of many research activities over the last decade. Fault-tolerant applications in a partitionable system model generally rely on two basic services: a group membership service and a reliable mu ...

A Predicate-Based Approach to Dynamic Protocol Update in Group Communication

André Schiper, Olivier Rütti

In this paper we study dynamic protocol updates (DPU), which consist in replacing, without interruption, a given protocol during execution. We focus especially on group communication protocols. The paper proposes a methodology to conveniently describe whic ...

A formal approach to fault tolerant distributed consensus

Rachele Fuzzati

The term distributed Consensus denotes the problem of getting a certain number of processes, that could be far away from each other and that exchange messages through some communication means, to all agree on the same value. This problem has been proved im ...
