Abstract: We consider vector fixed point (FP) equations in large dimensional spaces involving random variables, and study their realization-wise solutions. We have an underlying directed [...]

Many foundational issues in quantum mechanics frustrate the experts and keep them up at night. Unfortunately, when these concepts reach the greater public, they are [...]

Predicting the user Quality-of-Experience (QoE) for an internet application is a highly desirable feature in a number of situations. However, directly measuring user QoE is [...]

Datacenter flow routing relies on packet-in messages generated by switches and directed to the controller upon new flows arrivals. The SDN controller reacts to packet-in [...]

Thomas Bonald will talk about non-negative matrix factorization.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a promising radio access technology for 5G. It allows several users to transmit on the same frequency and time resource [...]

Élie de Panafieu will present some current work about one-dimensional, non-deterministic, random walks.

It is increasingly acknowledged that we are on the verge of the next technological and industrial revolution, driven by the digitization and interconnection of physical [...]

François Durand will present an introduction to Poisson games based on the two following articles: R. Myerson. Large Poisson Games. Journal of Economic Theory, 94:7–45, [...]

Large interconnected power systems are often operated by independent system operators, each having its own operating region within which internal resources are used economically. The [...]

Streaming of video contents over the Internet isexperiencing an unprecedented growth. While video permeatesevery application, it also puts tremendous pressure in the network --to support [...]

We study adaptive matching in expert systems, as an instance of adaptive sequential hypothesis testing. Examples of such systems include Q&A platforms, crowdsourcing, image classification. [...]

Anne Bouillard will present the paper Why deep neural networks ?, by Shiyu Liang and R. Srikant, 2016.

Today's consumer Internet traffic is transmitted on a best effort basis without taking into account any quality requirements. The backbone and the wireless access networks [...]

Linear Dynamical Systems are used to model several evolving network processes in biology, physical systems as well as financial networks. Estimation of the topology of [...]

The Internet of Things is one of the hottest topics being debated today across industries worldwide. Successful IoT deployment needs sustainable business models that are [...]

Presentation for the Working Group on BitCoin.

Abstract: Formal security analyses for block-chains derived the famous "honest majority" assumption: the system well-behaves only if the majority of the hashing power is in [...]

Abstract: Internet users in many countries around the world are subject to various forms of censorship and information control. Despite its widespread nature, however, measuring [...]

The surge of mobile data traffic forces network operators to cope with capacity shortage. The deployment of small cells in 5G networks is meant to [...]

Continuation of last week's presentation

As we move away from fossil fuels toward renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, inexpensive energy storage technologies are required. This is so [...]

Abstract: Energy harvesting (EH) is an attractive and green solution to the problem of limited lifetime of wireless sensor networks. Unlike a conventional node that [...]

Abstract: Conventional cellular wireless networks were designed with the purpose of providing high throughput for the user and high capacity for the service provider, without [...]

Abstract: A significant portion of today's network traffic is due to recurring downloads of popular content (e.g., movies, video clips and daily news). It has [...]

Amazon EC2 and Google Compute Engine (GCE) have recently introduced a new class of virtual machines called "burstable" instances that are cheaper than even the [...]

The rapid advances in sensors and ultra-low power wireless communication has enabled a new generation of wireless sensor networks: Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN). WBAN [...]

Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) is a novel mobile network architecture which can address a number of challenges the operators face while trying to support [...]

Abstract: This talk provides a discussion of one of the central design challenges associated with next-generation 5G wireless systems - that of effectively converging 3GPP-based [...]

The next talk in the ML workgroup will be given by Olivier Grisel on scikit learn as a demo session. It also possible to attend [...]

Abstract: Modeling and simulation (M&S) plays an important role in the design analysis and performance evaluation of complex systems. Many of these systems, such as [...]

We present a novel approach for distributed load balancing in heterogeneous networks that use cell range expansion (CRE) for user association and almost blank subframe [...]

A sample of the results of Lovasz' paper

Base station cooperation is a promising scheme to improve network performance for next generation cellular networks. Up to this point research has focused on station [...]

Abstract: In Software Defined Networking (SDN) the control plane is physically separate from the forwarding plane. Control software programs the forwarding plane (e.g., switches and [...]
