In an online linear optimization problem, on each period t, an online algorithm chooses st S from a fixed (possibly infinite) set S of feasible decisions. Nature (who may be adve...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) technology provides a scalable solution in multimedia streaming. Many streaming applications, such as IPTV and video conferencing, have rigorous constraints on ...
Bisubmodularity extends the concept of submodularity to set functions with two arguments. We show how bisubmodular maximization leads to richer value-of-information problems, usin...
—A fundamental problem in wireless networks is to estimate its throughput capacity - given a set of wireless nodes, and a set of connections, what is the maximum rate at which da...
