Data durability in peer to peer storage systems
In this paper we present a quantitative study of data survival in peer to peer storage systems. We first recall two main redundancy mechanisms: replication and erasure codes, whic...

Optimistic Linear Programming gives Logarithmic Regret for Irreducible MDPs
We present an algorithm called Optimistic Linear Programming (OLP) for learning to optimize average reward in an irreducible but otherwise unknown Markov decision process (MDP). O...

On myopic sensing for multi-channel opportunistic access: structure, optimality, and performance
We consider a multi-channel opportunistic communication system where the states of these channels evolve as independent and statistically identical Markov chains (the Gilbert-Elli...
