In this paper, we study the moments of the Age of Information (AoI) for both active and passive users in a random access network. In this network, active users broadcast sensing data, while passive users detect in-band radio activities from…
Traditional techniques for handling Byzantine failures are expensive: digital signatures are too costly, while using $3f{+}1$ replicas is uneconomical ($f$ denotes the maximum number of Byzantine processes). We seek algorithms that reduce…
Asynchronous Byzantine Atomic Broadcast (ABAB) promises simplicity in implementation as well as increased performance and robustness in comparison to partially synchronous approaches. We adapt the recently proposed DAG-Rider approach to…
While existing multi-agent systems (MAS) can handle complex problems by enabling collaboration among multiple agents, they are often highly task-specific, relying on manually crafted agent roles and interaction prompts, which leads to…
In recent studies [1][13][12] Recurrent Neural Networks were used for generative processes and their surprising performance can be explained by their ability to create good predictions. In addition, data compression is also based on…
We consider the problem of energy-efficient transmission in delay constrained cooperative multihop wireless networks. The combinatorial nature of cooperative multihop schemes makes it difficult to design efficient polynomial-time algorithms…
At an early stage in pre-biotic evolution, groups of replicating molecules must coordinate their reproduction to form aggregated units of selection. Mechanisms that enable this to occur are currently not well understood. In this paper we…
Probabilistic membership filters support fast approximate membership queries with a controlled false-positive probability $\varepsilon$ and are widely used across storage, analytics, networking, and bioinformatics…
Randomized backoff protocols, such as exponential backoff, are a powerful tool for managing access to a shared resource, often a wireless communication channel (e.g., [1]). For a wireless device to transmit successfully, it uses a backoff…
Movement primitives are trainable parametric models that reproduce robotic movements starting from a limited set of demonstrations. Previous works proposed simple linear models that exhibited high sample efficiency and generalization power…
In cognitive radio networks, secondary users (SUs) may cooperate with the primary user (PU), so that the success probability of PU transmissions are improved, while SUs obtain more transmission opportunities. Thus, SUs have to take…
Broadcast networks are often used in modern communication systems. A common broadcast network is a single hop shared media system, where a transmitted message is heard by all neighbors, such as some LAN networks. In this work we consider a…
We introduce collision free layerings as a powerful way to structure radio networks. These layerings can replace hard-to-compute BFS-trees in many contexts while having an efficient randomized distributed construction. We demonstrate their…
Traditional concept of cognitive radio is the coexistence of primary and secondary user in multiplexed manner. we consider the opportunistic channel access scheme in IEEE 802.11 based networks subject to the interference mitigation…
This paper proposes a method for solving optimization problems in which the decision-maker cannot evaluate the objective function, but rather can only express a preference such as "this is better than that" between two candidate decision…
Mutualistic SR is a communication paradigm that offers high spectrum efficiency and low power consumption, where the SU transmits information by modulating and backscattering the PT's signal, enabling shared use of spectrum and power with…
Primary users (PU) separation concerns with the issues of distinguishing and characterizing primary users in cognitive radio (CR) networks. We argue the need for PU separation in the context of collaborative spectrum sensing and monitor…
