In this paper we define the Weak Mutual Exclusion (WME) problem. Analogously to classical Distributed Mutual Exclusion (DME), WME serializes the accesses to a shared resource. Di...
This paper investigates resource allocation policies for achieving real-time content distribution with subsecond delay bounds on the current Internet. Resource allocation in real-...
This paper presents a novel approach for multiprocess synthesis supporting well-tailored module integration at system level. The goal is to extend the local scope of existing arch...

Mega grids span several continents and may consist of millions of nodes and billions of tasks executing at any point in time. This setup calls for scalable and highly available re...
This paper addresses the problem of fine-grained data replication in large distributed systems, such as the Internet, so as to minimize the user access delays. With fine-grained d...
