Consider two remote nodes having binary sequences $X$ and $Y$, respectively. $Y$ is an edited version of ${X}$, where the editing involves random deletions, insertions, and substitutions, possibly in bursts. The goal is for the node with…

Entanglement generation between remote qubit systems is the central tasks for quantum communication. Future quantum networks will have to be compatible with low-loss telecom bands and operate with large separation between qubit nodes.…

We currently see a steady rise in the usage and size of multiprocessor systems, and so the community is evermore interested in developing fast parallel processing algorithms. However, most algorithms require a synchronization mechanism,…

In many computational tasks and dynamical systems, asynchrony and randomization are naturally present and have been considered as ways to increase the speed and reduce the cost of computation while compromising the accuracy and convergence…

Recently, the technique of local updates is a powerful tool in centralized settings to improve communication efficiency via periodical communication. For decentralized settings, it is still unclear how to efficiently combine local updates…

Many commercial and defense applications involve multisensor, multitarget tracking, requiring the fusion of information from a set of sensors. An interesting use case occurs when data available at a central node (due to geometric diversity…

This paper proposes a "quasi-synchronous" design approach for signal processing circuits, in which timing violations are permitted, but without the need for a hardware compensation mechanism. The case of a low-density parity-check (LDPC)…

The state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms rely on distributed training systems to tackle the increasing sizes of models and training data sets. Minibatch stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm requires workers to halt forward/back…

In this paper we propose a new scheduling algorithm called Real Time Scheduling (RTS) which uses virtual nodes for self stabilization. This algorithm deals with all the contributing components of the end-to-end travelling delay of data…

Desynchronization approaches in wireless sensor networks converge to time-division multiple access (TDMA) of the shared medium without requiring clock synchronization amongst the wireless sensors, or indeed the presence of a central…

The Parareal algorithm allows to solve evolution problems exploiting parallelization in time. Its convergence and stability have been proved under the assumption of regular (smooth) inputs. We present and analyze here a new Parareal…

This paper presents fault-tolerant asynchronous Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) algorithms. SGD is widely used for approximating the minimum of a cost function $Q$, as a core part of optimization and learning algorithms. Our algorithms…

The time parallel solution of optimality systems arising in PDE constraint optimization could be achieved by simply applying any time parallel algorithm, such as Parareal, to solve the forward and backward evolution problems arising in the…

In digital circuit designs, sequential components such as flip-flops are used to synchronize signal propagations. Logic computations are aligned at and thus isolated by flip-flop stages. Although this fully synchronous style can reduce…

Maintaining a $k$-core decomposition quickly in a dynamic graph has important applications in network analysis. The main challenge for designing efficient exact algorithms is that a single update to the graph can cause significant global…

Decentralized learning provides a scalable alternative to parameter-server-based training, yet its performance is often hindered by limited peer-to-peer communication. In this paper, we study how communication should be scheduled over time,…

In two-time-scale stochastic approximation (SA), two iterates are updated at varying speeds using different step sizes, with each update influencing the other. Previous studies on linear two-time-scale SA have shown that the convergence…

Direct numerical simulations (DNS) are an indispensable tool for understanding the fundamental physics of turbulent flows. Because of their steep increase in computational cost with Reynolds number ($R_{\lambda}$), well-resolved DNS are…

Finding the dense regions of a graph and relations among them is a fundamental problem in network analysis. Core and truss decompositions reveal dense subgraphs with hierarchical relations. The incremental nature of algorithms for computing…

We consider the task of minimizing the sum of convex functions stored in a decentralized manner across the nodes of a communication network. This problem is relatively well-studied in the scenario when the objective functions are smooth, or…
