We study {\em routing} and {\em scheduling} in packet-switched networks. We assume an adversary that controls the injection time, source, and destination for each packet injected. A set of paths for these packets is {\em admissible} if no…
We study diversity in one-shot communication over molecular timing channels. We consider a channel model where the transmitter simultaneously releases a large number of information particles, while the information is encoded in the time of…
Regression testing assures software correctness after changes but is resource-intensive. Test Case Prioritisation (TCP) mitigates this by ordering tests to maximise early fault detection. Diversity-based TCP prioritises dissimilar tests,…
Early-bird communication is a communication/computation overlap technique that combines fine-grained communication with partitioned communication to improve application run-time. Communication is divided among the compute threads such that…
