Abstract. Gradients are distributed distance estimates used as a building block in many sensor network applications. In large or long-lived deployments, it is important for the est...

We present a novel algorithm for agglomerative hierarchical clustering based on evaluating marginal likelihoods of a probabilistic model. This algorithm has several advantages ove...
In this paper, we present an extension to existing approaches that capture and exploit timing-correlation between tasks for scheduling analysis in distributed systems. Previous ap...
We study the distributed allocation of tasks to cooperating robots in real time, where each task has to be assigned to exactly one robot so that the sum of the latencies of all ta...
In recent software transactional memory proposals, a contention manager module is responsible for ensuring that the system as a whole makes progress. A number of contention manage...
