Replication is widely used in application server products to tolerate faults. An important challenge is to correctly coordinate replication and transaction execution for stateful ...
This paper presents a new distributed computing framework for Many Task Computing (MTC) applications, based on the Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP). A lightweight...

We consider the scheduling of a sporadic real-time task system on an identical multiprocessor. Though Pfair algorithms are theoretically optimal for such task systems, in practice...
The reliability of future processors is threatened by decreasing transistor robustness. Current architectures focus on delivering high performance at low cost; lifetime device rel...
