Information Theoretic Bounds for Distributed Computation Over Networks of Point-to-Point Channels

A network of nodes communicate via point-to-point memoryless independent noisy channels. Each node has some realvalued initial measurement or message. The goal of each of the nodes is to acquire an estimate of a given function of all the initial measurements in the network. As the main contribut...
