A synchronous system model is a simple yet powerful distributed system model that reduces the complexity of the design and implementation of dependable distributed applications. H...
Proper data placement schemes based on erasure correcting code are one of the most important components for a highly available data storage system. For such schemes, low decoding ...
In query-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the system must perform data sensing and retrieval and possibly aggregate data as a response at runtime. Since a WSN is often deplo...
Failure models characterise the expected component failures in fault-tolerant computing. In the context of distributed systems, a failure model usually consists of two parts: a fu...

Failure detectors are commonly viewed as abstractions for the synchronism present in distributed system models. However, investigations into the exact amount of synchronism encapsu...
