This paper describes a study of a class of algorithms for the floating-point divide and square root operations, based on the Newton-Raphson iterative method. The two main goals we...

We present a new approach for reasoning about liveness properties of distributed systems, represented as automata. Our approach is based on simulation relations, and requires reas...
We study the memory requirements of self-stabilizing leader election (SSLE) protocols. We are mainly interested in two types of systems: anonymous systems and id-based systems. We...

The use of threads is becoming commonplace in both sequential and parallel programs. This paper describes our design and initial experience with non-trace based performance instru...
The conventional approach to routing in computer networks consists of using a heuristic to compute a single shortest path from a source to a destination. Single-path routing is ve...
