In this paper we consider the dictionary problem in a message-passing distributed environment. We introduce a new version, based on AVL-trees, of distributed search trees, the fir...
In hierarchical distributed systems, shared data access can be controlled by assigning user groups single cryptographic keys that allow high level users derive low level keys, but...

Non-parametric data representation can be done by means of a potential function. This paper introduces a methodology for finding modes of the potential function. Two different me...
In this chapter we take a look at the application of replication techniques for building scalable distributed systems. Unlike using replication for attaining dependability, replica...
