-- Electing leader is a vital issue not only in distributed computing but also in communication network [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], centralized mutual exclusion algorithm [6, 7], centralized ...
Clustered applications in storage area networks (SANs), widely adopted in enterprise datacenters, have traditionally relied on distributed locking protocols to coordinate concurre...
Abstract. We apply the theory of asynchronous automata to the synthesis problem of closed distributed systems. We use safe asynchronous automata as implementation model, and charac...
We consider the problem of recovering from failures of distributable threads with assured timeliness. When a node hosting a portion of a distributable thread fails, it causes orph...

In this paper we examine how application performance scales on a state-of-the-art shared virtual memory (SVM) system on a cluster with 64 processors, comprising 4-way SMPs connect...
