We propose a new paradigm for software availability enhancement. We offer a two-step strategy: Failure prediction followed by maintenance actions with the objective of avoiding imp...
We are investigating strategies for using replication to design and implement highly reliable peer-to-peer systems. In particular, we are comparing the use of whole object and blo...

Interval availability is a dependability measure defined by the fraction of time during which a system is in operation over a finite observation period. The computation of its d...
As raw system and network performance continues to improve at exponential rates, the utility of many services is increasingly limited by availability rather than performance. A ke...
Building reliable data storage from unreliable components presents many challenges and is of particular interest for peer-to-peer storage systems. Recent work has examined the tra...
