Secure routing for structured peer-to-peer overlay networks
, 2002
"... Structured peer-to-peer overlay networks provide a sub-strate for the construction of large-scale, decentralized applications, including distributed storage, group com-munication, and content distribution. These overlays are highly resilient; they can route messages correctly even when a large fract ..."

without pre-existing trust relationships wish to pool their resources. This paper studies attacks aimed at preventing correct message delivery in structured peer-to-peer overlays and presents defenses to these attacks. We describe and eval-uate techniques that allow nodes to join the overlay, to maintain
Loopy belief propagation for approximate inference: An empirical study. In:
- Proceedings of Uncertainty in AI,
, 1999
"... Abstract Recently, researchers have demonstrated that "loopy belief propagation" -the use of Pearl's polytree algorithm in a Bayesian network with loops -can perform well in the context of error-correcting codes. The most dramatic instance of this is the near Shannon-limit performanc ..."

X passes to its parent U; is given by: and the message X sends to its child Y j is given by: k;Cj For noisy-or links between parents and children, there exists an analytic expression for 1r( x) and Ax ( u;) that avoids the exhaustive enumeration over parent config urations We made a slight
Randomized Experiments from Non-random Selection in the U.S. House Elections
- Journal of Econometrics
, 2008
"... This paper establishes the relatively weak conditions under which causal inferences from a regression-discontinuity (RD) analysis can be as credible as those from a randomized experiment, and hence under which the validity of the RD design can be tested by examining whether or not there is a discont ..."

characteristics and choices, but there is also a random chance element: for each individual, there exists a well-defined probability distribution for V. The density function – allowed to differ arbitrarily across the population – is assumed to be continuous. It is formally established that treatment status here
An efficient multicast protocol for content-based publish-subscribe systems
, 1999
"... Abstract. The publish/subscribe (or pub/sub) paradigm is a simple and easy to use model for interconnecting applications in a distributed environment. Many existing pub/sub systems are based on pre-defined subjects, and hence are able to exploit multicast technologies to provide scalability and avai ..."

Mobile ad hoc networking: imperatives and challenges
, 2003
"... Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) represent complex distributed systems that comprise wireless mobile nodes that can freely and dynamically self-organize into arbitrary and temporary, "ad-hoc" network topologies, allowing people and devices to seamlessly internetwork in areas with no pre-exi ..."

COMPUTATIONAL STUDY OF NON-STATIONARY CLUSTER SIZE DISTRIBUTION AND RATE OF NUCLEATION IN CASE OF PRE-EXISTING CLUSTERS
"... The dynamics of a cluster-type system formed by constant total number of molecules, M, is studied when clusters change their sizes by nearest-size transitions (the Szilard model) with time-dependent boundary conditions and non-zero initial cluster size distribution. We compare these results to those ..."

to those reported previously [5], when non-stationary cluster size distribution was considered under the condition that only monomers are present in the system at the initial moment t=0, and describe the effect of arbitrary pre-existing clusters on the time evolution of the interacting clusters
On the Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Acoustic Emissions in Two Granitic Rocks Under Triaxial Compression: The Role of Pre-Existing Cracks
, 2000
"... . We used a new rapid data acquisition system to examine the role of pre-existing crack density in determining the mechanical properties of crystalline rock. Two similar coarse-grained samples, Tsukuba granite (TG) and granitic porphyry (GP), were used in triaxial compression tests. The main differe ..."

Pre-Existing Isoniazid Resistance, but Not the Genotype of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Drives Rifampicin Resistance Codon Preference in Vitro

We studied the interaction of these factors for the in vitro selection of rifampicin (RIF)resistant mutants of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We c ..."
