Robust Collaborative Learning with Linear Gradient Overhead

Rachid Guerraoui, Nirupam Gupta, Rafaël Benjamin Pinot, Le Nguyen Hoang, Sadegh Farhadkhani, John Stephan

Collaborative learning algorithms, such as distributed SGD (or D-SGD), are prone to faulty machines that may deviate from their prescribed algorithm because of software or hardware bugs, poisoned data or malicious behaviors. While many solutions have been ...

Federated Linear Bandit Learning via Over-the-air Computation

Yuning Jiang, Xin Liu

In this paper, we investigate federated contextual linear bandit learning within a wireless system that comprises a server and multiple devices. Each device interacts with the environment, selects an action based on the received reward, and sends model upd ...

Too Quiet in the Library: An Empirical Study of Security Updates in Android Apps' Native Code

Mathias Josef Payer

Android apps include third-party native libraries to increase performance and to reuse functionality. Native code is directly executed from apps through the Java Native Interface or the Android Native Development Kit. Android developers add precompiled nat ...

Content Based Status Updates

Emre Telatar, Rajai Nasser, Elie Najm

Consider a stream of status updates generated by a source, where each update is of one of two types: high priority or ordinary (low priority). These updates are to be transmitted through a network to a monitor. However, the transmission policy of each pack ...

Bits through Time

Elie Najm

In any communication system, there exist two dimensions through which the information at the source becomes distorted before reaching the destination: the noisy channel and time. Messages transmitted through a noisy channel are susceptible to modification ...

Performance Assessment of Linearized OPF-based Distributed Real-time Predictive Control

Mario Paolone, Fabrizio Sossan

We consider the problem of controlling heteroge-neous controllable resources of a distribution network with the objective of achieving a certain power flow at the grid connection point while respecting local grid constraints. The problem is formulated as a ...

CHAINIAC: Proactive Software-Update Transparency via Collectively Signed Skipchains and Verified Builds

Bryan Alexander Ford, Linus Gasser, Philipp Svetolik Jovanovic, Eleftherios Kokoris Kogias, Nicolas Gailly, Ismail Khoffi, Kirill Nikitin

Software-update mechanisms are critical to the security of modern systems, but their typically centralized design presents a lucrative and frequently attacked target. In this work, we propose CHAINIAC, a decentralized software-update framework that elimina ...

Information-Theoretic Caching

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Chien-Yi Wang, Sung Hoon Lim

Motivated by the caching problem introduced by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, a problem of distributed source coding with side information is formulated, which captures a distinct interesting aspect of caching. For the single-user case, a single-letter characteriz ...

Monolithic Integration of Silicon Nanowires With a Microgripper

Yusuf Leblebici, Michail Zervas

Si nanowire (NW) stacks are fabricated by utilizing the scalloping effect of inductively coupled plasma deep reactive ion etching. When two etch windows are brought close enough, scallops from both sides will ideally meet along the dividing centerline of t ...

Proactive Steering Toward Oriented Targets

Ronan Boulic

In this paper we introduce a real-time steering controller ensuring the reach of a (possible mobile) target position and orientation, without requiring to build/update the full trajectory to that target. We name it the funnelling control. The final orienta ...
