Scalable Application Layer Multicast
, 2002
"... We describe a new scalable application-layer multicast protocol, specifically designed for low-bandwidth, data streaming applications with large receiver sets. Our scheme is based upon a hierarchical clustering of the application-layer multicast peers and can support a number of different data deliv ..."

sites. In our experiments, averagegroup members established and maintained low-latency paths and incurred a maximum packet loss rate of less than 1 % as members randomly joined and left the multicast group. The average control overhead during our experiments was less than 1 Kbps for groups of size 100.
The Capacity of Low-Density Parity-Check Codes Under Message-Passing Decoding
, 2001
"... In this paper, we present a general method for determining the capacity of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes under message-passing decoding when used over any binary-input memoryless channel with discrete or continuous output alphabets. Transmitting at rates below this capacity, a randomly chos ..."

exponentially fast in the length of the code with arbitrarily small loss in rate.) Conversely, transmitting at rates above this capacity the probability of error is bounded away from zero by a strictly positive constant which is independent of the length of the code and of the number of iterations performed
Error and attack tolerance of complex networks
, 2000
"... Many complex systems display a surprising degree of tolerance against errors. For example, relatively simple organisms grow, persist and reproduce despite drastic pharmaceutical or environmental interventions, an error tolerance attributed to the robustness of the underlying metabolic network [1]. C ..."

number of systems, such as the World Wide Web (www) [3–5], Internet [6], social networks [7] or a cell [8], display an unexpected degree of robustness, the ability of their nodes to communicate being unaffected by even unrealistically high failure rates. However,
Approximate accelerated stochastic simulation of chemically reacting systems
- J. Chem. Phys
, 2001
"... The stochastic simulation algorithm ͑SSA͒ is an essentially exact procedure for numerically simulating the time evolution of a well-stirred chemically reacting system. Despite recent major improvements in the efficiency of the SSA, its drawback remains the great amount of computer time that is ofte ..."

On the capacity of MIMO broadcast channel with partial side information
- IEEE TRANS. INFORM. THEORY
, 2005
"... In multiple-antenna broadcast channels, unlike point-to-point multiple-antenna channels, the multiuser capacity depends heavily on whether the transmitter knows the channel coefficients to each user. For instance, in a Gaussian broadcast channel with transmit antennas and single-antenna users, the ..."

The Importance of Long-Range Dependence of VBR Video Traffic in ATM Traffic Engineering: Myths and Realities
- IN PROC. ACM SIGCOMM '96
, 1996
"... There has been a growing concern about the potential impact of long-term correlations (second-order statistic) in variable-bit-rate (VBR) video traffic on ATM buffer dimensioning. Previous studies have shown that video traffic exhibits long-range dependence (LRD) (Hurst parameter large than 0.5). We ..."

We investigate the practical implications of LRD in the context of realistic ATM traffic engineering by studying ATM multiplexers of VBR video sources over a range of desirable cell loss rates and buffer sizes (maximum delays). Using results based on large deviations theory, we introduce the notion
Automatic vigilance: the attention-grabbing power of negative social information
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 1991
"... One of the functions of automatic stimulus evaluation is to direct attention toward events that may have undesirable consequences for the perceiver's well-being. To test whether attentional resources are automatically directed away from an attended task to undesirable stimuli, Ss named the colo ..."

Across 3 experiments, color-naming latencies were consistently longer for undesirable traits but did not differ within the desirable and undesirable categories. In Experiment 2, Ss also showed more incidental learning
Ageing and Parkinson's Disease: substantia nigra regional selectivity
- Brain
, 1991
"... The micro-architecture of the substantia nigra was studied in control cases of varying age and patients with parkinsonism. A single 7 p section stained with haematoxylin and eosin was examined at a specific level within the caudal nigra using strict criteria. The pars compacts was divided into a ven ..."

In 7 cases cell loss was confined to the lateral ventral tier (average loss 52%) congruent with the lateral ventral selectivity of symptomatic PD. It was calculated that at the onset of symptoms
Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.

Statistical Behavior and Consistency of Classification Methods based on Convex Risk Minimization

We study how close the optimal Bayes error rate can be approximately reached using a classification algorithm that computes a classifier by minimizing a convex upper bound of the classification error function. The measurement of closeness is characterized by the loss function used in the estimation. ..."
