A timing channel is a communication channel that can transfer information to a
receiver/decoder by modulating the timing behavior of an entity. Examples of this entity …

Given two random variables X and Y, an operational approach is undertaken to quantify the
“leakage” of information from X to Y. The resulting measure L (X→ Y) is called maximal …

We show that the uniform distribution minimizes entropy among all one-dimensional
symmetric log-concave distributions with fixed variance, as well as various generalizations …

A conceptually simple proof for the capacity formula of an exponential server timing channel
is provided. The proof links the timing channel to the point-process channel with …

We study the information-theoretic limit of reliable information processing by a server with
queue-length dependent quality of service. We define the capacity for such a system as the …

In their" Bits Through Queues" paper, Anantharam and Verdú showed that if the service time
is memoryless feedback does not increase capacity under a FIFO policy, and further …

It is well known that queues with exponentially distributed service times have the smallest
Shannon capacity among all single-server queues with the same service rate. In this paper …

We consider the problem of stabilizing an undisturbed, scalar, linear system over a “timing”
channel, namely a channel where information is communicated through the timestamps of …

This paper presents a proof of the rate distortion function of a Poisson process with a
queuing distortion measure that is in complete analogy with the proofs associated with the …

This paper examines more closely the probabilistic dynamics of queueing timing channels
and discusses a new practical coding scheme which is tailored to them and approaches …
