In order for middleware systems to be adaptive, their properties and services need to support a wide variety of application-specific policies. However, application developers and ...
Approximating pairwise, or k-wise, independence with sublinear memory is of considerable importance in the data stream model. In the streaming model the joint distribution is give...
With the ubiquity of information networks and their broad applications, the issue of similarity computation between entities of an information network arises and draws extensive r...
In this paper we propose a lightweight algorithm for constructing multi-resolution data representations for sensor networks. We compute, at each sensor node u, O(log n) aggregates...
Network calculus is a min-plus system theory which facilitates the efficient derivation of performance bounds for networks of queues. It has successfully been applied to provide e...
