—In many sensor network applications, manual or well-controlled node deployment is not practical. Random deployments, e.g., from the air, often result in unevenly distributed nod...
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...
Abstract--Malicious and misconfigured nodes can inject incorrect state into a distributed system, which can then be propagated system-wide as a result of normal network operation. ...

Sensor networks are long-running computer systems with many sensing/compute nodes working to gather information about their environment, process and fuse that information, and in ...
—To harness the ever growing capacity and decreasing cost of storage, providing an abstraction of dependable storage in the presence of crash-stop and Byzantine failures is compu...
