Adaptive randomized mutual exclusion in sub-logarithmic expected time
Mutual exclusion is a fundamental distributed coordination problem. Shared-memory mutual exclusion research focuses on local-spin algorithms and uses the remote memory references ...

A Molecular Quasi-Random Model of Computations Applied to Evaluate Collective Intelligence
The paper presents how the Random PROLOG Processor (RPP), a bio-inspired model of computations, can be used for formalization and analysis of a phenomenon - the Collective Intelli...

A modular approach to shared-memory consensus, with applications to the probabilistic-write model
We define two new classes of shared-memory objects: ratifiers, which detect agreement, and conciliators, which ensure agreement with some probability. We show that consensus can...

Dynamic Partial Order Reduction Using Probe Sets
We present an algorithm for partial order reduction in the context of a countable universe of deterministic actions, of which finitely many are enabled at any given state. This mea...

Learning Stochastic Finite Automata
Abstract. Stochastic deterministic finite automata have been introduced and are used in a variety of settings. We report here a number of results concerning the learnability of th...
