Randomness extraction is the process of constructing a source of randomness of high quality from one or several sources of randomness of lower quality. The problem can be modeled ...
We prove that, for the uniform distribution over all sets X of m (that is a fixed integer) non-empty words whose sum of lengths is n, DX , one of the usual deterministic automata r...
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to solving the distributed constraint optimisation problem (DCOP) that guarantees completeness, while having linear communication comple...
