Secure, fault-tolerant distributed systems are difficult to build, to validate, and to operate. Conservative design for such systems dictates that their security and fault toleran...
— Distributed hash tables (DHTs) provide efficient data naming and location with simple hash-table-like primitives, upon which sophisticated distributed applications can be buil...
The importance of distributed systems is growing as computing devices become ubiquitous and bandwidth becomes plentiful. Concurrency and distribution pose algorithmic and implemen...
The ever growing request for digital information raises the need for content distribution architectures providing high storage capacity, data availability and good performance. Wh...
Given the scale of massively parallel systems, occurrence of faults is no longer an exception but a regular event. Periodic checkpointing is becoming increasingly important in the...
