Based on the framework of service-oriented architecture (SOA), complex distributed systems can be dynamically and automatically composed by integrating distributed Web services pr...
Fault injection, a critical aspect of testing robust systems, is often overlooked in the development of generalpurpose software. We believe this is due to the absence of easy-to-u...
This work assesses how crashes and recoveries affect the performance of a replicated dynamic content web application. RobustStore is the result of retrofitting TPC-W’s on-line ...

We consider a set of clients collaborating through an online service provider that is subject to attacks, and hence y trusted by the clients. We introduce the abstraction of a fai...
In this paper, we introduce a novel metric that can quantitatively measure the practical effectiveness (i.e. anonymity) of all anonymous networks in the presence of timing attack....
