The paper addresses the problem of the construction and management of highly available services in large, open distributed systems. A novel replication protocol is proposed to sat...
Reliability-aware power management (RAPM) has been a recent research focus due the negative effects of the popular power management technique dynamic voltage and frequency scaling ...
The ability to guarantee that a system will continue to operate correctly under degraded conditions is key to the success of adopting multi-agent systems (MAS) as a paradigm for d...
In distributed systems that use active replication to achieve robustness, it is important to efficiently enforce consistency among replicas. The nonblocking mode helps to speed u...
