CSMA/CA protocols rely on the random deferment of packet transmissions. Like most other protocols, CSMA/CA was designed with the assumption that the nodes would play by the rules. This can be dangerous, since the nodes themselves control their random defer ...
This communication describes the multi-modal VidTIMIT database, which can be useful for research involving mono- or multi-modal speech recognition or person authentication. It is comprised of video and corresponding audio recordings of 43 volunteers, recit ...
In this work, we investigate the use of RASTA filter in the TANDEM feature extraction method when trained with a task independent data. RASTA filter removes the linear distortion introduced by the communication channel which is demonstrated in a 18% relat ...

This paper investigates the two main and seemingly antagonistic approaches to broadcasting messages in fault-tolerant distributed systems: the approach based on Reliable Broadcast, and the one based on View Synchronous Communication (or VSC for short). We ...
We study the distributed infrastructures required for location-independent communication between mobile agents. These infrastructures are problematic: different applications may have very different patterns of migration and communication, and require diffe ...
We consider large sensor networks where the cost of collecting data from the network nodes to the data gathering sink is critical.~We propose several algorithms that use limited local communication and distributed signal processing to make communication mo ...
The present communication is based on the research undertaken by the author and whose principal results are detailed in its thesis entitled « Choice of alternatives of road infrastructures : multicriteria methods » like on the prospects offered by this one ...
Many practical scenarios involve solving a social choice problem: a group of self-interested agents have to agree on an outcome that best fits their combined preferences. We assume that each outcome presents a certain utility to an agent and that the best ...
This paper describes a new consensus algorithm for the asynchronous message passing system model augmented with an unreliable failure detector abstraction: channels are reliable, processes can fail by crashing, and the detection of crashes are not reliable ...
