The rate-distortion function for source coding with side information at the decoder

by Aaron D. Wyner, Jacob Ziv - IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory , 1976
"... Abstract-Let {(X,, Y,J}r = 1 be a sequence of independent drawings of a pair of dependent random variables X, Y. Let us say that X takes values in the finite set 6. It is desired to encode the sequence {X,} in blocks of length n into a binary stream*of rate R, which can in turn be decoded as a seque ..."

as well as the decoder has access to the side information {Y,}. In nearly all cases it is shown that when d> 0 then R*(d)> Rx, y(d), so that knowledge of the side information at the encoder permits transmission of the {X,} at a given distortion level using a smaller transmission rate

Formal Ontology and Information Systems

by Nicola Guarino , 1998
"... Research on ontology is becoming increasingly widespread in the computer science community, and its importance is being recognized in a multiplicity of research fields and application areas, including knowledge engineering, database design and integration, information retrieval and extraction. We sh ..."

Climate and atmospheric history of the past 420,000 years from the Vostok ice core,

"... Antarctica has allowed the extension of the ice record of atmospheric composition and climate to the past four glacial-interglacial cycles. The succession of changes through each climate cycle and termination was similar, and atmospheric and climate properties oscillated between stable bounds. Inte ..."

420,000 years. The late Quaternary period (the past one million years) is punctuated by a series of large glacial-interglacial changes with cycles that last about 100,000 years (ref. 1). Glacial-interglacial climate changes are documented by complementary climate records 1,2 largely derived from deep

Simple Heuristics That Make Us Smart

by Gerd Gigerenzer, Peter M. Todd , 2008
"... To survive in a world where knowledge is limited, time is pressing, and deep thought is often an unattainable luxury, decision-makers must use bounded rationality. In this precis of Simple heuristics that make us smart, we explore fast and frugal heuristics—simple rules for making decisions with re ..."

Schema abstraction‖ in a multiple-trace memory model

by Douglas L. Hintzman - Psychological Review , 1986
"... A simulation model of episodic memory, MINERVA 2, is applied to the learning of concepts, as represented bythe schema-abstraction task. The model assumes that each experience produces a separate memory trace and that knowledge of abstract oncepts i derived from the pool of episodic traces at the tim ..."

On the Placement of Web Server Replicas

by Lili Qiu, Venkata N. Padmanabhan, Geoffrey M. Voelker - In Proceedings of IEEE INFOCOM , 2001
"... Abstract—Recently there has been an increasing deployment of content distribution networks (CDNs) that offer hosting services to Web content providers. CDNs deploy a set of servers distributed throughout the Internet and replicate provider content across these servers for better performance and avai ..."
Abstract - Cited by 359 (9 self) - Add to MetaCart
the placement algorithms using both synthetic and real network topologies, as well as Web server traces, and show that the placement of Web replicas is crucial to CDN performance. We also address a number of practical issues when using these algorithms, such as their sensitivity to imperfect knowledge about

Topologically-aware overlay construction and server selection

by Sylvia Ratnasamy, Mark Handley, Richard Karp, Scott Shenker , 2002
"... A number of large-scale distributed Internet applications could potentially benefit from some level of knowledge about the relative proximity between its participating host nodes. For example, the performance of large overlay networks could be improved if the application-level connectivity between ..."

strategy and its application using simulation and Internet measurement traces. Our results indicate that the performance of these applications can be significantly improved by even the rather coarse-grained knowledge of topology offered by our binning scheme.

Recovering traceability links between code and documentation

by Giuliano Antoniol, Gerardo Canfora, Gerardo Casazza, Andrea De Lucia, Ettore Merlo - IEEE Trans. Softw. Eng , 2002
"... Abstract—Software system documentation is almost always expressed informally in natural language and free text. Examples include requirement specifications, design documents, manual pages, system development journals, error logs, and related maintenance reports. We propose a method based on informat ..."

on information retrieval to recover traceability links between source code and free text documents. A premise of our work is that programmers use meaningful names for program items, such as functions, variables, types, classes, and methods. We believe that the application-domain knowledge that programmers

Breaking Spectrum Gridlock with Cognitive Radios: An Information Theoretic Perspective

by Andrea Goldsmith, Syed Ali Jafar, Ivana Marić, Sudhir Srinivasa , 2008
"... Cognitive radios hold tremendous promise for increasing spectral efficiency in wireless systems. This paper surveys the fundamental capacity limits and associated transmission techniques for different wireless network design paradigms based on this promising technology. These paradigms are unified b ..."
Abstract - Cited by 265 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart
by the definition of a cognitive radio as an intelligent wireless communication device that exploits side information about its environment to improve spectrum utilization. This side information typically comprises knowledge about the activity, channels, codebooks and/or messages of other nodes with which

DTN routing as a resource allocation problem

by Aruna Balasubramanian, Brian Neil Levine, Arun Venkataramani - IN PROC. ACM SIGCOMM , 2007
"... Routing protocols for disruption-tolerant networks (DTNs) use a variety of mechanisms, including discovering the meeting probabilities among nodes, packet replication, and network coding. The primary focus of these mechanisms is to increase the likelihood of finding a path with limited information, ..."
Abstract - Cited by 248 (12 self) - Add to MetaCart
