The multiple-access problem is addressed from the combined standpoint of both coding and scheduling to arrive at a stable, highly efficient access scheme for the binary adder channel. The authors define a system model that includes the channel and the coding mechanism and explain the M-choose-T communication mode which is fundamental to their method. They then address the system's performance and show that high throughput (arbitrarily close to 1) is achieved while the access remains stable. They also investigate the average message delay.
