Peer to peer (P2P) systems are moving from application specific architectures to a generic service oriented design philosophy. This raises interesting problems in connection with...
Abstract. Even though there have been many research works on distributed deadlock detection and recovery mechanisms, the multi-cycle deadlock problems are not extensively studied y...
We have designed a stackable file system called Redundant Array of Independent Filesystems (RAIF). It combines the data survivability properties and performance benefits of trad...
In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
One of the most serious security threats in the Internet are Distributed Denial of Service ( DDoS) attacks, due to the significant service disruption they can create and the di...
