On the design of distributed protocols from differential equations
We propose a framework to translate certain subclasses of differential equation systems into distributed protocols that are practical. The synthesized protocols are state machine...

Minimizing churn in distributed systems
A pervasive requirement of distributed systems is to deal with churn — change in the set of participating nodes due to joins, graceful leaves, and failures. A high churn rate ca...

Randomized and distributed self-configuration of wireless networks: two-layer Markov random fields and near-optimality
Abstract--This work studies the near-optimality versus the complexity of distributed configuration management for wireless networks. We first develop a global probabilistic graphic...

Back-of-the-Envelope Computation of Throughput Distributions in CSMA Wireless Networks
— This paper presents a simple method for computing throughputs of links in a CSMA network. We call our method back-of-the-envelop (BoE) computation, because for many network con...

Software performance modelling using PEPA nets
Modelling and analysing distributed and mobile software systems is a challenging task. PEPA nets—coloured stochastic Petri nets—are a recently introduced modelling formalism w...
