A challenging issue in today's server systems is to transparently deal with failures and application-imposed requirements for continuous operation. In this paper we address t...
Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs) are an increasingly popular class of real-time interactive distributed applications that require scalable architectures and parallelizat...
It is a challenge to design and implement a wide-area distributed hash table (DHT) which provides a storage service with high reliability. Many existing systems use replication to...

With the Distributed File System Replication component, DFS-R, as the central theme, we present selected protocol problems and validation methods encountered during design and deve...
This paper studies distributed scheduling of parallel I/O data transfers on systems that provide data replication. In our previous work, we proposed a centralized algorithm for so...
