Failure detectors (or, more accurately Failure Suspectors { FS) appear to be a fundamental service upon which to build fault-tolerant, distributed applications. This paper shows t...
High-speed (10 Gb/s and above) network monitoring and traffic processing requires hardware acceleration. Different applications require different functions to be placed in hardware...
The hype surrounding Web 2.0 and technologies such as AJAX shows: The future of distributed application development lies in Rich Internet Applications (RIAs), which are based on h...
Today, critical infrastructures like the power grid are essentially physical processes controlled by computers connected by networks. They are usually as vulnerable as any other i...
