This paper argues that simply applying a multipletree scheme does not provide sufficient fairness for applications in an Internet-scale distributed system, in terms of performance...
It is unclear if and how collaboratories have enhanced distributed scientific collaboration. Furthermore, little is known in the way of design strategies to support such collabora...

: This paper describes a method aiming to support the design of interactive-safety critical systems. The method proposes an original integration of approaches usually considered se...
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...
Designing a distributed fault tolerance algorithm requires careful analysis of both fault models and diagnosis strategies. A system will fail if there are too many active faults, ...
