Previous analyses of scalable streaming protocols for delivery of stored multimedia have largely focused on how the server bandwidth required for full-file delivery scales as the ...
Wireless ad-hoc sensor networks have the potential to provide the missing interface between the physical world and the Internet, thus impacting a large number of users. This conne...

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks based on consistent hashing functions have an inherent load uneven distribution problem. Things are even worse in unstructured P2P systems. The objecti...
Whereas traditional databases manage only deterministic information, many applications that use databases involve uncertain data. This paper presents a Probabilistic Tree Data Bas...
We present a novel message passing algorithm for approximating the MAP problem in graphical models. The algorithm is similar in structure to max-product but unlike max-product it ...
