    • Ant-inspired density estimation via random walks 

      Musco, Cameron Nicholas; Su, Hsin-Hao; Lynch, Nancy Ann (National Academy of Sciences (U.S.), 2017-10)
      Many ant species use distributed population density estimation in applications ranging from quorum sensing, to task allocation, to appraisal of enemy colony strength. It has been shown that ants estimate local population ...

    • Storage-Optimized Data-Atomic Algorithms for Handling Erasures and Errors in Distributed Storage Systems 

      Kantor, Erez; Schwarzmann, Alexander A.; Konwar, Kishori Mohan; Prakash, N.; Lynch, Nancy Ann; e.a. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-05)
      Erasure codes are increasingly being studied in the context of implementing atomic memory objects in large scale asynchronous distributed storage systems. When compared with the traditional replication based schemes, erasure ...

    • Computing in Additive Networks with Bounded-Information Codes 

      Censor-Hillel, Keren; Kantor, Erez; Lynch, Nancy Ann; Parter, Merav (Springer-Verlag, 2015-11)
      This paper studies the theory of the additive wireless network model, in which the received signal is abstracted as an addition of the transmitted signals. Our central observation is that the crucial challenge for computing ...
