On the Impossibility of Implementing Perpetual Failure Detectors in Partially Synchronous Systems
In this paper we study the implementability of different classes of failure detectors in several models of partial synchrony. We show that no failure detector with perpetual accur...

Enhanced Reliability Modeling of RAID Storage Systems
A flexible model for estimating reliability of RAID storage systems is presented. This model corrects errors associated with the common assumption that system times to failure fol...

Quantifying Temporal and Spatial Correlation of Failure Events for Proactive Management
Networked computing systems continue to grow in scale and in the complexity of their components and interactions. Component failures become norms instead of exceptions in these en...

Convergence rates of consensus algorithms in stochastic networks
Abstract-- We study the convergence rate of average consensus algorithms in networks with stochastic communication failures. We show how the system dynamics can be modeled by a dis...
