Ahlswede and Winter [AW02] introduced a Chernoff bound for matrix-valued random variables, which is a non-trivial generalization of the usual Chernoff bound for real-valued random...
Several algorithms based on link analysis have been developed to measure the importance of nodes on a graph such as pages on the World Wide Web. PageRank and HITS are the most pop...
The study in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) is facing challenges brought by recent discovery of non-exponential behavior of the inter-contact time distribution of mobile nodes. In...
We examine a version of the Cops and Robber (CR) game in which the robber is invisible, i.e., the cops do not know his location until they capture him. Apparently this game (CiR) h...
Non-adaptive group testing involves grouping arbitrary subsets of n items into different pools. Each pool is then tested and defective items are identified. A fundamental question...
