The Byzantine Generals Problem,"
- ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems,
, 1982
"... Abstract The Byzantine Generals Problem requires processes to reach agreement upon a value even though some of them may fad. It is weakened by allowing them to agree upon an "incorrect" value if a failure occurs. The transaction eormmt problem for a distributed database Js a special case ..."

A generalized processor sharing approach to flow control in integrated services networks: The single-node case
- IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING
, 1993
"... The problem of allocating network resources to the users of an integrated services network is investigated in the context of rate-based flow control. The network is assumed to be a virtual circuit, connection-based packet network. We show that the use of Generalized processor Sharing (GPS), when co ..."

Longitudinal data analysis using generalized linear models”.
- Biometrika,
, 1986
"... SUMMARY This paper proposes an extension of generalized linear models to the analysis of longitudinal data. We introduce a class of estimating equations that give consistent estimates of the regression parameters and of their variance under mild assumptions about the time dependence. The estimating ..."

. The estimating equations are derived without specifying the joint distribution of a subject's observations yet they reduce to the score equations for multivariate Gaussian outcomes. Asymptotic theory is presented for the general class of estimators. Specific cases in which we assume independence, m
Improved algorithms for optimal winner determination in combinatorial auctions and generalizations
, 2000
"... Combinatorial auctions can be used to reach efficient resource and task allocations in multiagent systems where the items are complementary. Determining the winners is NP-complete and inapproximable, but it was recently shown that optimal search algorithms do very well on average. This paper present ..."

a more general tractable special case, and design algorithms for solving it as well as for solving known tractable special cases substantially faster. We generalize combinatorial auctions to multiple units of each item, to reserve prices on singletons as well as combinations, and to combinatorial
Five misunderstandings about case-study research
- Qualitative Inquiry
, 2006
"... When I first became interested in in-depth case-study research, I was trying to understand how power and rationality shape each other and form the urban environments in which we live (Flyvbjerg, 1998). It was clear to me that in order to understand a complex issue like this, in-depth case-study rese ..."

It was equally clear, however, that my teachers and colleagues kept dissuading me from employing this particular research methodology. ‘You cannot generalize from a single case’, some would say, ‘and social science is about generalizing. ’ Others would argue that the case study may
Using Daily Stock Returns: The Case of Event Studies
- Journal of Financial Economics
, 1985
"... This paper examines properties of daily stock returns and how the particular characteristics of these data affect event study methodologies. Daily data generally present few difficulties for event studies. Standard procedures are typically well-specified even when special daily data characteris-tics ..."

Optimally sparse representation in general (non-orthogonal) dictionaries via ℓ¹ minimization
- PROC. NATL ACAD. SCI. USA 100 2197–202
, 2002
"... Given a ‘dictionary’ D = {dk} of vectors dk, we seek to represent a signal S as a linear combination S = ∑ k γ(k)dk, with scalar coefficients γ(k). In particular, we aim for the sparsest representation possible. In general, this requires a combinatorial optimization process. Previous work considered ..."

Case-based reasoning; Foundational issues, methodological variations, and system approaches
- AI COMMUNICATIONS
, 1994
"... Case-based reasoning is a recent approach to problem solving and learning that has got a lot of attention over the last few years. Originating in the US, the basic idea and underlying theories have spread to other continents, and we are now within a period of highly active research in case-based rea ..."

This paper gives an overview of the foundational issues related to case- based reasoning, describes some of the leading methodo- logical approaches within the field, and exemplifies the current state through pointers to some systems. Initially, a general framework is defined
The Case for Energy-Proportional Computing
"... Energy-proportional designs would enable large energy savings in servers, potentially doubling their efficiency in real-life use. Achieving energy proportionality will require significant improvements in the energy usage profile of every system component, particularly the memory and disk subsystems. ..."

. Energy efficiency, a new focus for general-purpose computing, has been a major technology driver in the mobile and embedded areas for some time. Earlier work emphasized extending battery life, but it has since expanded to include peak power reduction because thermal constraints began to limit further CPU
Dynamic programming algorithm optimization for spoken word recognition
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ACOUSTICS, SPEECH, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING
, 1978
"... This paper reports on an optimum dynamic programming (DP) based time-normalization algorithm for spoken word recognition. First, a general principle of time-normalization is given using timewarping function. Then, two time-normalized distance definitions, ded symmetric and asymmetric forms, are der ..."
