Abstract. When dealing with distributed systems, one of the most important problems that has to be addressed is concurrency. Distributed systems are inherently concurrent, distribu...
High assurance security is di cult to achieve in distributed computer systems and databases because of their complexity, non-determinism and inherent heterogeneity. The practical ...
