We consider a class of pursuit-evasion differential games in which the evader has continuous access to the pursuer's location, but not vice-versa. There is an immobile sensor (e.g., a ground radar station) that can sense the evader's…

Text-to-pattern distance is a fundamental problem in string matching, where given a pattern of length $m$ and a text of length $n$, over an integer alphabet, we are asked to compute the distance between pattern and the text at every…
In this paper, a streaming transmission setup is considered where an encoder observes a new message in the beginning of each block and a decoder sequentially decodes each message after a delay of $T$ blocks. In this streaming setup, the…
This paper considers the problem of securing a linear network coding system against an adversary that is both an eavesdropper and a jammer. The network is assumed to transport n packets from source to each receiver, and the adversary is…

Reliability is an important requirement for both communication and storage systems. Due to continuous scale down of technology multiple adjacent bits error probability increases. The data may be corrupted due soft errors. Error correction…

Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices and $C$ be an $(n,k,d)$ code with $d\ge 2$, defined on the alphabet set $\{0,1\}^m$. Suppose that for $1\le i\le n$, the $i$-th vertex of $G$ holds an input symbol $x_i\in\{0,1\}^m$ and let…
We show that in the document exchange problem, where Alice holds $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ and Bob holds $y \in \{0,1\}^n$, Alice can send Bob a message of size $O(K(\log^2 K+\log n))$ bits such that Bob can recover $x$ using the message and his…
