This paper evaluates the behavior of a common off-theshelf (COTS) database management system (DBMS) in presence of transient faults. Database applications have traditionally been ...
We consider online algorithms for the generalized caching problem. Here we are given a cache of size k and pages with arbitrary sizes and fetching costs. Given a request sequence ...
To achieve correct execution of peer-to-peer applications on non-reliable resources, we present a portable and distributed algorithm that provides fault tolerance and result checki...
