The multitask diffusion LMS is an efficient strategy to simultaneously infer, in a collaborative manner, multiple parameter vectors. Existing works on multitask problems assume that all agents respond to data synchronously. In several…

We consider the problem of allocating a fixed amount of resource among nodes in a network when each node suffers a cost which is a convex function of the amount of resource allocated to it. We propose a new deterministic and distributed…

We study a diffusion approximation for a model of stochastic motion of a particle in one spatial dimension. The velocity of the particle is constant but the direction of the motion undergoes random changes with a Poisson clock. Moreover,…

Long DNA molecules can be mapped by cutting them with restriction enzymes inside a narrow channel. Once cut, the individual fragments thus produced move away from each other due to diffusion and entropic effects. We investigate how long it…
