Large-scale distributed systems, e.g., Grid or P2P networks, are targets for large-scale attacks. Unfortunately, few existing systems support propagation of alerts during the atta...

This paper presents general techniques for formally modeling, simulating, and model checking real-time resource-sharing protocols in Real-Time Maude. The “scheduling subset” o...
We propose several models based on discrete-time Markov chains for the analysis of Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs). Specifically, we examine the Pastry routing protocol, as well a...

Abstract. The newscast model is a general approach for communication in large agent-based distributed systems. The two basic services— membership management and information disse...
Synchronization is widely considered as an important service in distributed systems which may simplify protocol design. Phase clock is a general synchronization tool that provides ...
