— Stochastic activity networks (SANs) are a widely used formalism for describing complex systems that have random behavior. Sophisticated software tools exist for the modeling an...

This paper presents MAUI, a system that enables fine-grained energy-aware offload of mobile code to the infrastructure. Previous approaches to these problems either relied heavily...
We prove that if NP ⊆ BPP, i.e., if SAT is worst-case hard, then for every probabilistic polynomial-time algorithm trying to decide SAT, there exists some polynomially samplable ...
We initiate a study of tradeoffs between communication and computation in well-known communication models and in other related models. The fundamental question we investigate is t...

Automatic cost analysis has interesting applications in the context of verification and certification of mobile code. For instance, the code receiver can use cost information in o...
