It is widely recognized that device and interconnect fabrics at the nanoscale will be characterized by an increased susceptibility to transient faults. This appears to be intrinsi...
Peer-to-Peer file-sharing applications suffer from a fundamental problem of unfairness. Free-riders cause slower download times for others by contributing little or no upload band...
Synchronization is widely considered as an important service in distributed systems which may simplify protocol design. Phase clock is a general synchronization tool that provides ...
With wireless communications and mobile hand-held devices becoming a reality, new applications where users can have access to information anytime, anywhere are made possible. To d...
We present fault localization techniques suitable for diagnosing end-to-end service problems in communication systems with complex topologies. We refine a layered system model th...
