Within only a couple of generations, the so-called digital revolution has taken the world by storm: today, almost all human beings interact, directly or indirectly, at some point in their life, with a computer system. Computers are present on our desks, co ...
Consider a set of correlated sources located at the nodes of a network, and a set of sinks that are the destinations for some of the sources. The minimization of cost functions which are the product of a function of the rate and a function of the path weig ...
We consider the problem of correlated data gathering by a network with a sink node and a tree based communication structure, where the goal is to minimize the total trans- mission cost of transporting the information collected by the nodes, to the sink nod ...
Message-based communication offers potential benefits of providing stronger specification and cleaner separation between components. Compared with shared-memory interactions, message passing has the potential disadvantages of being more expensive (no direc ...
Network information theory explores the fundamental data transport limits over communication networks. Broadcasting and relaying are two natural models arising in communication contexts where multiple users share a common communication medium. Number of re ...
This document talks briefly about making the current P- Grid implementation secure. We realize the following two requirements which we feel are essential for making communication on P-Grid the most secure one. ...
The communication shows an alternative for introducing soil-structure interaction in the analysis of cut-and-cover tunnels. An uncoupled method is illustrated through two examples representative of the situations found in practice. The main features of eac ...
ELU-ULS 2006 - Symposium international sur les états limites ultimes des ouvrages géotechniques2006
We consider the joint optimization of sensor placement and transmission structure for data gathering, where a given number of nodes need to be placed in a field such that the sensed data can be reconstructed at a sink within specified distortion bounds whi ...
Efficiently handling reputation is important in dealing with free-riding, malicious attacks and random failures in self-organized communication systems. At the same time, work in this context is often found to be relevant in many other disciplines, in part ...
We consider the multiuser successive refinement (MSR) problem, where the users are connected to a central server via links with different noiseless capacities, and each user wishes to reconstruct in a successive-refinement fashion. An achievable region is ...
