Mirroring is often used to enhance the reliability of disk systems, but it is usually considered expensive because it duplicates storage cost and increases the cost of writes. Tra...

Abstract. Allowing read operations to return stale data with low probability has been proposed as a means to increase availability in quorums systems. Existing solutions that allow...
A central problem in extending the von Neumann architecture to petaflop computers with millions of hardware threads and with a shared memory is defining the memory model [Lam79,...
A shared communication medium is characterized by multiple entities that use this medium by reading and writing from and to it. Write operations on the shared communication medium...
We present a replication control protocol that provides excellent data availabilities while guaranteeing that all writes to the object are recorded in at least two replicas. The p...
