Guessing with Distributed Encoders

Distributed Testing With Interactive Encoders

In this paper, we consider distributed testing problems with interactive encoders, which allow interactive communications among encoders so that each encoder can utilize messages from other encoders for encoding. We first focus on a special case of testing against independence and design a scheme that enables each encoder to take advantage of extra information from other encoders for encoding. ...

Robust Distributed Source Coding with Arbitrary Number of Encoders and Practical Code Design Technique

The robustness property can be added to DSC system at the expense of reducing performance, i.e., increasing the sum-rate. The aim of designing robust DSC schemes is to trade off between system robustness and compression efficiency. In this paper, after deriving an inner bound on the rate–distortion region for the quadratic Gaussian MDC based RDSC system with two encoders, the structure of...

Guessing Games and Distributed Computations in Synchronous Networks

1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background and Motivations A distributed system is a network G=(V,E) of |V|=n processors connected by |E|=e direct communication links, where each processor has a local non-shared memory and can communicate by sending messages to and receiving messages from its neighbours. The behaviour of these processors can be conveniently described as finite-state and event-driven; that ...
