Three protocols for gossip-based failure detection services in large-scale heterogeneous clusters are analyzed and compared. The basic gossip protocol provides a means by which fai...
In this paper, we address the problem of preserving generated data in a sensor network in case of node failures. We focus on the type of node failures that have explicit spatial s...
Tracing is a dynamic analysis technique to continuously capture events of interest on a running program. The occurrence of a statement, the invocation of a function, and the trigg...
Following the seminal work of Zheng and Tse on the diversity and multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of MIMO channels, in this paper we introduce the array gain to investigate the fundame...
