A discrete distribution D over Σ1 × · · · × Σn is called (non-uniform) k-wise independent if for any set of k indexes {i1, . . . , ik} and for any z1 ∈ Σi1 , . . . , zk ...
In this paper, we study the problem of an optimal assignment of a tree-structured context reasoning procedure onto the computation resources in a hostsatellites configuration. The...
For transmission of continuous media (CM) streams such as audio and video over the Internet, a critical issue is that periodic network overloads cause bursty packet losses. Studie...
