Coordinating the activities of distributed autonomous entities challenges traditional approaches to distributed coordination and calls for new paradigms and supporting middleware....
— Developing applications for parallel and distributed systems is hard due to their nondeterministic nature; developing debugging tools for such systems and applications is even ...

Large-scale distributed systems are hard to deploy, and distributed hash tables (DHTs) are no exception. To lower the barriers facing DHT-based applications, we have created a pub...

Large-scale distributed systems, e.g., Grid or P2P networks, are targets for large-scale attacks. Unfortunately, few existing systems support propagation of alerts during the atta...

In large-scale distributed systems, asynchronous communication and future objects are becoming wide spread mechanisms to tolerate high latencies and to improve global performances...
Large-scale distributed systems, such as e-healthcare systems, are difficult to develop due to their complex and decentralized nature. The Service Oriented Architecture facilitat...

Large-scale distributed systems are subject to churn, i.e., continuous arrival, departure and failure of processes. Analysis of protocols under churn requires one to use churn mod...
—Many large-scale distributed systems can benefit from a service that allows them to select among alternative nodes based on their relative network positions. A variety of appro...
