We consider a queue-channel model that captures the waiting time-dependent degradation of information bits as they wait to be transmitted. Such a scenario arises naturally in quantum communications, where quantum bits tend to decohere…

In this work, we introduce a new concatenation scheme which aims at protecting information against the occurrence of both computational errors and quantum erasures. According to our scheme, the internal code must be a quantum…

Fairness is increasingly recognized as a critical component of machine learning systems. However, it is the underlying data on which these systems are trained that often reflects discrimination, suggesting a data management problem. In this…

Causal consistency for key-value stores has two main requirements (1) do not make a version visible if some of its dependencies are invisible as it may violate causal consistency in the future and (2) make a version visible as soon as…
