Abstract. This paper describes the application of a decentralised coordination algorithm, called Collaborative Reinforcement Learning (CRL), to two different distributed system pr...

In this paper, we propose BIND (Binding Instructions aNd Data),1 a fine-grained attestation service for securing distributed systems. Code attestation has recently received consi...
Engineering distributed systems is a challenging activity. This is partly due to the intrinsic complexity of distributed systems, and partly due to the practical obstacles that de...

A distributed system is a collection of computers that are connected via a communication network. Distributed systems have become commonplace due to the wide availability of low-c...
Distributed systems today are very vulnerable to malicious attacks, either from insiders or outsiders. When an attacker controls a component of the system, he may steal some sensi...
Suppose we have a parallel or distributed system whose nodes have limited capacities, such as processing speed, bandwidth, memory, or disk space. How does the performance of the s...
Understanding the characteristics of the Internet delay space (i.e., the all-pairs set of static round-trip propagation delays among edge networks in the Internet) is important fo...

Debugging grid systems is complex, mainly because of the probe effect and non reproducible execution. The probe effect arises when an attempt to monitor a system changes the behav...
– This paper presents a reliable decentralized mutual exclusion algorithm for distributed systems in which processes communicate by asynchronous message passing. When any failure...
