Exploiting replication in distributed systems

Ken Birman, Thomas Joseph • ACM eBooks (1990)

Techniques are examined for replicating data and execution in directly distributed systems: systems in which multiple processes interact directly with one another while continuously respecting constraints on their joint behavior. Directly d...

An architecture for practical delegation in a distributed system

Morrie Gasser, Ellen McDermott • IEEE Computer Society Symposium on Research in Security and Privacy (1990)

A practical technique for delegation is described. It provides both cryptographic assurance that a delegation was authorized and authentication of the delegated systems, thereby allowing reliable access control as well as precise auditing o...

Robust Probabilistic Inference in Distributed Systems

Mark A. Paskin, Carlos Guestrin • arXiv (Cornell University) (2012)

Probabilistic inference problems arise naturally in distributed systems such as sensor networks and teams of mobile robots. Inference algorithms that use message passing are a natural fit for distributed systems, but they must be robust to ...

GEM: a generalized event monitoring language for distributed systems

Masoud Mansouri-Samani, Morris S. Sloman • Distributed Systems Engineering (1997)

Event-based monitoring is critical for managing and debugging networks and distributed systems. This paper presents GEM - an interpreted generalized event monitoring language. It allows high-level, abstract events to be specified in terms o...

Broadcast protocols for distributed systems

Peter Michael Melliar-Smith, L.E. Moser, Vivek Agrawala • IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems (1990)

An innovative approach is presented to the design of fault-tolerant distributed systems that avoids the several rounds of message exchange required by current protocols for consensus agreement. The approach is based on broadcast communicati...

in Distributed Systems

Arup Abhinna Acharya, B. R. Badrinath (1991)

This paper presents an eflcient protocol to totally order the delivery of broadcast messages in a distributed system with N sites. The protocol exploits a symmetric communication scheme based on finite projective planes and requires N+2a me...

Authentication in distributed systems

Butler Lampson, Martı́n Abadi, Michael T. Burrows, Edward P. Wobber • ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review (1991)

We describe a theory of authentication and a system that implements it. Our theory is based on the notion of principal and a "speaks for" relation between principals. A simple principal either has a name or is a communication channel; a com...

Cybersecurity and Ethics

Karsten Weber • Routledge eBooks (2022)

Even though the term “cybersecurity” was not used at the beginning of computer development, the problems associated with it existed at a very early stage and became increasingly important in parallel with the rapid spread of computers as we...

What is Cybersecurity?

Donald F. Norris, Laura K. Mateczun, Richard F. Forno • Wiley eBooks (2022)

Cybersecurity can be considered “good health care” for local governments and society at large. In fact, the term “cyber-hygiene” has been applied to the implementation of routine cybersecurity measures. This chapter begins with a brief desc...

Towards an Improved Understanding of Human Factors in Cybersecurity

Jongkil Jay Jeong, Joanne Mihelcic, Gillian Oliver, Carsten Rudolph • IEEE International Conference on Collaboration and Internet Computing (CIC) (2019)

Cybersecurity cannot be addressed by technology alone; the most intractable aspects are in fact sociotechnical. As a result, the 'human factor' has been recognised as being the weakest and most obscure link in creating safe and secure digit...
