The communication complexity of the Exact-N Problem revisited
If Alice has x, y, Bob has x, z and Carol has y, z can they determine if x + y + z = N? They can if (say) Alice broadcasts x to Bob and Carol; can they do better? Chandra, Furst, a...

Threshold Schemes with Disenrollment
Blakley, Blakley, Chan and Massey conjectured a lower bound on the entropy of broadcast messages in threshold schemes with disenrollment. In an effort to examine the conjecture, w...

Improved On-Line Broadcast Scheduling with Deadlines
We study an on-line broadcast scheduling problem in which requests have deadlines, and the objective is to maximize the weighted throughput, i.e., the weighted total length of the ...

The Bayesian Learner is Optimal for Noisy Binary Search (and Pretty Good for Quantum as Well)
We use a Bayesian approach to optimally solve problems in noisy binary search. We deal with two variants: • Each comparison is erroneous with independent probability 1 − p. â€...

Optimal Distributed P2P Streaming under Node Degree Bounds
We study the problem of maximizing the broadcast rate in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems under node degree bounds, i.e., the number of neighbors a node can simultaneously connect to is ...
