Data is typically replicated in a Data Grid to improve the job response time and data availability. Strategies for data replication in a Data Grid have previously been proposed, b...
We give new constructions of randomness extractors and lossless condensers that are optimal to within constant factors in both the seed length and the output length. For extractor...

—In a sensor network, in practice, the communication among sensors is subject to: 1) errors that can cause failures of links among sensors at random times; 2) costs; and 3) const...
We focus on data gathering problems in energy constrained networked sensor systems. The system operates in rounds where a subset of the sensors generate a certain number of data p...
This paper presents an efficient solution technique for the steady-state analysis of the second-order Stochastic Fluid Model underlying a second-order Fluid Stochastic Petri Net (...
