In this paper we show the power of sampling techniques in designing efficient distributed algorithms. In particular, we show that using sampling techniques, on some networks, sele...
— In this paper, we study cross-layer design for rate control in multihop wireless networks. In our previous work, we have developed an optimal cross-layered rate control scheme ...
We address the problem of restricting root’s ability to change arbitrary files on disk, in order to prevent abuse on most current desktop operating systems. The approach first...
Three experimental environments traditionally support network and distributed systems research: network emulators, network simulators, and live networks. The continued use of mult...

In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
