Abstract. Renewed interest in ALOHA-based Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols stems from their proposed applications to wireless ad hoc and sensor networks that require distribut...
We study the problem of estimating the average of a Lipschitz continuous function f defined over a metric space, by querying f at only a single point. More specifically, we explore...
This paper considers the problem of scalable distributed coding of correlated sources that are communicated to a central unit. The general setting is typically encountered in sens...
With large amounts of correlated probabilistic data being generated in a wide range of application domains including sensor networks, information extraction, event detection etc.,...
