A natural trend in most of the engineering disciplines is the construction of systems from components. This has the potential to reduce costs and increase reliability, provided th...
We propose a framework to translate certain subclasses of differential equation systems into distributed protocols that are practical. The synthesized protocols are state machine...
Mobile systems operate in a resource-scarce environment and thus must adapt to external conditions; all layers must make cost-based decisions about what mode of operation to use i...
To address the limitations of centralized shared storage for cloud computing, we are building Lithium, a distributed storage system designed specifically for virtualization workl...
There is an increasing demand for highly reliable systems in the safety conscious climate of today’s world. When a fault does occur there are two desirable outcomes. Firstly, de...
