Distributed systems

This is a dataset for distributed system fault diagnosis tasks....

Distributed Systems

Distributed systems have become a central part of big data. The systems are part of two subgroups: distributed databases such as Teradata or distributed file systems like Hadoop. Breakthroughs in technology have reduced costs in computing a...

Parallel Spectral Clustering in Distributed Systems

Spectral clustering algorithms have been shown to be more effective in finding clusters than some traditional algorithms, such as k-means. However, spectral clustering suffers from a scalability problem in both memory use and computational ...

Dynamic Thermal Management for Distributed Systems

In modern data centers, the impact on the thermal properties by increased scale and power densities is enormous and poses new challenges on the designers of both computing as well as cooling systems. Controltheoretic techniques have proven ...

On Deadlock Detection in Distributed Systems

A hierarchically organized and a distributed protocol for deadlock detection in distributed databases are presented in [1]. In this paper we show that the distributed protocol is incorrect, and present possible remedies. However, the distri...

An Integrated Power Consumption Model for Distributed Systems

In order to realize green ecosocieties, the total electric power consumption of computers and networks is required to be reduced. In applications on distributed systems, clients issue service requests to servers and then servers send replie...

DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM-A TOOL FOR BUILDING DEPENDABLE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM

Physically, a Distributed System consists of a set of processors, with a collection of local storage mechanisms associated with each processor. A processor is able to execute programs that access and manipulate the local storage, where the ...

Node Autonomy In Distributed Systems

Distributed Systems

This chapter provides an introduction to distributed computing as a foundation for better understanding of cloud-enabled business processes. Distributed systems constitute of a large umbrella under which several different software systems a...

Distributed Systems

This chapter addresses the issues involved in distributed databases, where a database is stored on more than one computer. It provides an introduction to parallel and distributed computing as a foundation for the better understanding of clo...

On the way to a distributed systems calculus

Network calculus is a min-plus system theory which facilitates the efficient derivation of performance bounds for networks of queues. It has successfully been applied to provide end-to-end quality of service guarantees for integrated and di...

Distributed Systems

The origins of big data technologies come from database systems and distributed systems as well as data mining and machine learning algorithms that can process these vast amounts of data to extract the necessary knowledge. This chapter addr...

Distributed Systems

When we connect several computers in a network to jointly process large amounts of data, such a computing system is commonly referred to as a “distributed system”. From a technical standpoint the key difference between a distributed system ...

Developing a Self-Reflection Tool to Assess Schools’ Openness

In 2015, the EU Educational Policy document “Science Education for Responsible Citizenship” introduced the concept of Open Schooling as a promising approach to transform schools into innovation hubs within their local communities. In an ope...

Compositional specification and verification of distributed systems

We present a method for specification and verification of distributed systems that communicate via asynchronous message passing. The method handles both safety and liveness properties. It is compositional, i.e., a specification of a composi...

Distributed Systems

Distributed Systems Comprehensive textbook resource on distributed systems—integrates foundational topics with advanced topics of contemporary importance within the field Distributed Systems: Theory and Applications is organized around thre...

Load balancing in distributed systems

Most distributed systems are characterized by distribution of both physical and logical features. The architecture of a distributed system is usually modular. Most distributed systems support a varying number of processing elements. The sys...

Fault Tolerance Mechanisms in Distributed Systems

The use of technology has increased vastly and today computer systems are interconnected via different communication medium. The use of distributed systems in our day to day activities has solely improved with data distributions. This is be...

Detection of Mutual Inconsistency in Distributed Systems

Many distributed systems are now being developed to provide users with convenient access to data via some kind of communications network. In many cases it is desirable to keep the system functioning even when it is partitioned by network fa...
