Practical Parallel Algorithms for Minimum Spanning Trees
We study parallel algorithms for computing the minimum spanning tree of a weighted undirected graph G with n vertices and m edges. We consider an input graph G with m=n p, where p...

AQuA: An Adaptive Architecture that Provides Dependable Distributed Objects
Dependable distributed systems are difficult to build. This is particularly true if they have dependability requirements that change during the execution of an application, and are...

Tolerating Visitor Location Register Failures in Mobile Environments
For mobile users who move frequently but receive relatively rare calls, a forwarding scheme has been shown to outperform the normal IS-41 location management scheme. But the forwa...

On Diffusing Updates in a Byzantine Environment
We study how to efficiently diffuse updates to a large distributed system of data replicas, some of which may exhibit arbitrary (Byzantine) failures. We assume that strictly fewer...
