The fault tolerance provided by FT-CORBA is basically static, that is, once the fault tolerance properties of a group of replicated processes defined, they cannot be modified in r...
As computational clusters increase in size, their mean-time-to-failure reduces. Typically checkpointing is used to minimize the loss of computation. Most checkpointing techniques, ...
Large-scale networks of mobile agents autonomously performing long-term sensing and communication tasks will be foreseeable in the near future. Since nodes in such a system commun...
Fault-tolerant (FT) distributed protocols (such as group membership, consensus, etc.) represent fundamental building blocks for many practical systems, e.g., the Google File System...
The use of good random numbers is essential to the integrity of many mission-critical systems. However, when such systems are replicated for Byzantine fault tolerance, a serious i...
