Model Checking Probabilistic Distributed Systems
Protocols for distributed systems make often use of random transitions to achieve a common goal. A popular example are randomized leader election protocols. We introduce probabilis...

The Randomness Recycler: A New Technique for Perfect Sampling
For many probability distributions of interest, it is quite difficult to obtain samples efficiently. Often, Markov chains are employed to obtain approximately random samples fro...

Equilibria in topology control games for ad hoc networks
We study topology control problems in ad hoc networks, where network nodes get to choose their power levels in order to ensure desired connectivity properties. Unlike most other w...

Exponentiated Gradient Algorithms for Large-margin Structured Classification
We consider the problem of structured classification, where the task is to predict a label y from an input x, and y has meaningful internal structure. Our framework includes super...

Towards a Characterisation of the Behaviour of Stochastic Local Search Algorithms for SAT
Stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms have been successfully applied to hard combinatorial problems from different domains. Due to their inherent randomness, the run-time behav...
