The paper addresses the problem of solving classic distributed algorithmic problems under the practical model of Broadcast Communication Networks. Our main result is a new Leader Election algorithm, with O(n) time complexity and O(n lg(n)) message transmission complexity. Our distributed solution uses a special form of the propagation of information with feedback (PIF) building block tuned to t...

This study assessed indirect interpersonal exposure to the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, broadcast and print media exposure in the aftermath of the explosion, emotional reactions to media coverage, and posttraumatic stress reactions in children distant from the explosion. A survey was administered to 88 sixth-grade students in the public middle school in a community 100 miles from Oklahoma City 2...

Most work in the area of segmentation of broadcast material has concentrated solely on the video element of the media. This paper looks at an algorithm which, in addition, utilises the audio track as a means of identifying meaningful scene breaks. This work is set in the context of a web-based video search engine that is demonstrated using broadcast news, and the effectiveness of the algorithm ...

Remote communities generally have limited access to telecommunications and broadcast media services. The development of terrestrial and satellite based digital TV delivery systems, particularly those using Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) standards, provide new opportunities for service delivery for remote communities. We investigate potential DVB based interactive TV, data and voice services for ...
