Quorum placement in networks to minimize access delays
A quorum system is a family of sets (themselves called quorums), each pair of which intersect. In many distributed algorithms, the basic unit accessed by a client is a quorum of n...

Toward a theory of transactional contention managers
In recent software transactional memory proposals, a contention manager module is responsible for ensuring that the system as a whole makes progress. A number of contention manage...

Primal-dual based distributed algorithms for vertex cover with semi-hard capacities
In this paper we consider the weighted, capacitated vertex cover problem with hard capacities (capVC). Here, we are given an undirected graph G = (V, E), non-negative vertex weigh...

Adaptive routing with stale information
We investigate the behaviour of load-adaptive rerouting policies in the Wardrop model where decisions must be made on the basis of stale information. In this model, an infinite n...

On reliable broadcast in a radio network
— We consider the problem of reliable broadcast in an infinite grid (or finite toroidal) radio network under Byzantine and crash-stop failures. We present bounds on the maximum...

Stochastic analysis of distributed deadlock scheduling
Deadlock detection scheduling is an important, yet oft-overlooked problem that can significantly affect the overall performance of deadlock handling. An excessive initiation of ...

On the establishment of distinct identities in overlay networks
Abstract We study ways to restrict or prevent the damage that can be caused in a peer-to-peer network by corrupt entities creating multiple pseudonyms. We show that it is possible ...
