With the rapidly falling price of hardware, and increasingly available bandwidth, the storage technology is seeing a paradigm shift from centralized and managed mode to distribute...
Fast and accurate fault detection is becoming an essential component of management software for mission critical systems. A good fault detector makes possible to initiate repair a...
This paper explores the challenges associated with distributed application management in large-scale computing environments. In particular, we investigate several techniques for e...

Executing parallel applications across distributed networks introduces the problem of fault tolerance. A viable solution for fault tolerance must keep overhead manageable and not c...
Protocols that solve agreement problems are essential building blocks for fault tolerant distributed systems. While many protocols have been published, little has been done to ana...
