: Asynchronous circuits are often presented as a means of achieving low power operation. We investigate their suitability for low-energy applications, where long battery life and d...
Current peer-to-peer lookup algorithms have been designed with the assumption that routing information at each member node must be kept small, so that the bookkeeping required to ...
Heartbeat protocols are used by distributed programs to ensure that if a process in a program terminates or fails, then the remaining processes in the program terminate. We presen...
We propose an improved probabilistic method for reading remote clocks in systems subject to unbounded communication delays and use this method to design a family of fault-tolerant...
We present the queueing analysis of a degenerate buffer having access to a single server. This system cannot realize any given delay, but only values that are an integer multiple ...
