This paper presents our research on devising a dependability assessment method for the upcoming OGSA 3.0 middleware using network level fault injection. We compare existing DCE mi...
Abstract— In this paper, we consider the design of a reliable multicast facility over an unreliable multicast network. Our multicast facility has several interesting properties: ...
In multipeer communication decentralised probabilistic protocols have received a lot of attention because of their robustness against faults in the communication traffic and thei...
A recent trend has seen the extension of objectoriented middleware to component-oriented middleware. A major advantage components offer over objects is that only the business logi...

Replication is one of the prominent approaches for obtaining fault tolerance. Implementing replication on commodity hardware and in a transparent fashion, i.e., without changing t...
We demonstrate that symmetric-key cryptography can be used for both read and write access control. One-time write access can be granted by handing over an encryption key, and our ...
The perfectly synchronized round model provides the abstraction of crash-stop failures with atomic message delivery. This abstraction makes distributed programming very easy. We p...
We consider the problem of increasing the availability of shared data in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems so that users can access any content, regardless of the current subset of onlin...
