We study bias arising as a result of nonlinear transformations of random variables in random or mixed effects models and its effect on inference in group-level studies or in meta-analysis. The findings are illustrated on the example of overdispersed binomi ...
Classical list scheduling is a very popular and efficient technique for scheduling jobs for parallel and distributed platforms. It is inherently centralized. However, with the increasing number of processors, the cost for managing a single centralized list ...
Task scheduling typically employs a worker thread per hardware context to process a dynamically changing set of tasks. It is an appealing solution to exploit modern multi-core processors, as it eases parallelization and avoids unnecessary context switches ...
In October 2010, researchers from diverse backgrounds collided at the historic Cumberland Lodge (Windsor, UK) to discuss the role of randomness in cell and developmental biology. Organized by James Briscoe and Alfonso Marinez-Arias, The Company of Biologis ...
Asynchronous task allocation is a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which p asynchronous processes must execute a set of m tasks. Also known as write-all or do-all, this problem been studied extensively, both independently and as a key buildi ...
We consider the simple random walk on Z(d) evolving in a random i.i.d. potential taking values in [0, +infinity). The potential is not assumed integrable, and can be rescaled by a multiplicative factor lambda > 0. Completing the work started in a companion ...
Pushed by the proliferation of antennas and of multiuser scenarios, matrices with random entries are appearing more and more frequently in information theory. This leads to the study of matrix channels, where the capacity depends on the distribution of the ...
This thesis is devoted to the design and analysis of algorithms for scheduling problems. These problems are ubiquitous in the modern world. Examples include the optimization of local transportation, managing access to concurrent resources like runways at a ...
This paper presents a scheduling model for a class of interactive services in which requests are time bounded and lower result quality can be traded for shorter execution time. These applications include web search engines, finance servers, and other inter ...
The effects of practice schedule on learning a complex judgment task were investigated. In Experiment 1, participants' judgment accuracy on a retention test was higher after a random practice schedule than after a blocked schedule or operational schedule. ...
