: This paper shows how the Asynchronous Backtracking (Yokoo et al., 1998) algorithm, a well known distributed constraint satisfaction algorithm, produces unnecessary messages and i...
In this paper, we address the rate control problem for layered multicast traffic, with the objective of solving a generalized throughput/fairness objective. Our approach is based o...
A general scheme for trust-region methods on Riemannian manifolds is proposed and analyzed. Among the various approaches available to (approximately) solve the trust-region subpro...

A method is proposed for finding the global minimum of a multivariate polynomial via sum of squares (SOS) relaxation over its gradient variety. That variety consists of all points ...
We consider the problem of transmitting data at rate over a state-dependent channel with state information available at the sender and at the same time conveying the information ab...
