In the near future, commodity hardware is expected to incorporate both flash and magnetic disks. In this paper we study how the storage layer of a database system can benefit from...
— Cooperative distributed model predictive control has recently been shown to provide stabilizing feedback for plants composed of any finite number of dynamically coupled subsys...

Failure detectors are commonly viewed as abstractions for the synchronism present in distributed system models. However, investigations into the exact amount of synchronism encapsu...
Failure detectors — oracles that provide information about process crashes — are an important ion for crash tolerance in distributed systems. Although current failure-detector...
