Adaptive mutual exclusion with local spinning
We present an adaptive algorithm for N-process mutual exclusion under read/write atomicity in which all busy waiting is by local spinning. In our algorithm, each process p perform...

Bounds to the Rate Distortion Tradeoff of the Binary Markov Source
We provide bounds to the rate distortion tradeoff of the binary Markov source with the Hamming distance as the distortion measure. The tradeoff has been completely characterized b...
