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...
To take full advantage of the parallelism offered by a multicore machine, one must write parallel code. Writing parallel code is difficult. Even when one writes correct code, the...

Abstract. The peer sampling service is a middleware service that provides random samples from a large decentralized network to support gossip-based applications such as multicast, ...
— Simulated Evolution (SimE) is a sound stochastic approximation algorithm based on the principles of adaptation. If properly engineered it is possible for SimE to reach nearopti...
