1 Switched system-area networks enable thousands of storage devices to be shared and directly accessed by end hosts, promising databases and filesystems highly scalable, reliable ...
This paper is on the Consensus problem, in the context of asynchronous distributed systems made of n processes, at most f of them may crash. A family of failure detector classes s...
Abstract-- The efficacy of end-to-end multicast transport protocols depends critically upon their ability to scale efficiently to a large number of receivers. Several research mult...
The RAIN (Reliable Array of Independent Nodes) project at Caltech is focusing on creating highly reliable distributed systems by leveraging commercially available personal compute...
We study communication primitives for interaction between mobile agents. They can be classified into two groups. At a low level there are location dependent primitives that require...
