Effective Concurrency Testing for Distributed Systems

Xinhao Yuan, Junfeng Yang • International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS) (2020)

Despite their wide deployment, distributed systems remain notoriously hard to reason about. Unexpected interleavings of concurrent operations and failures may lead to undefined behaviors and cause serious consequences. We present Morpheus, ...

Epidemic information dissemination in distributed systems

Patrick Th. Eugster, Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Laurent Massoulié • Computer (2004)

Easy to deploy, robust, and highly resilient to failures, epidemic algorithms are a potentially effective mechanism for propagating information in large peer-to-peer systems deployed on Internet or ad hoc networks. It is possible to adjust ...

Dynamics and Control of Distributed Systems

• Cambridge University Press eBooks (1998)

Distributed parameter systems encompass a broad range of engineering applications from stereo speakers to space structures. The dynamic behaviour of these systems is usually governed by one or more partial differential equations, which may ...

Distributed Systems

Vivek Kale • Chapman & Hall/CRC eBooks (2014)

Distributed applications consist of a collection of heterogeneous but fully autonomous components that can execute on different computers. While each of these components has full control over its constituent subparts, there is no master com...

Distributed Systems

Pranabananda Chakraborty • Chapman & Hall/CRC eBooks (2023)

This chapter demystifies computing systems consisting of multiple CPUs, shared and distributed memory, and different types of I/O in the form of multiprocessors and multicomputers that eventually gave rise to distributed computing systems a...

The Verification of a Distributed System

Caitie McCaffrey • Queue (2015)

Leslie Lamport, known for his seminal work in distributed systems, famously said, "A distributed system is one in which the failure of a computer you didn’t even know existed can render your own computer unusable." Given this bleak outlook ...

Functionally Accurate, Cooperative Distributed Systems

Victor Lesser, Daniel D. Corkill • IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics (1981)

A new approach for structuring distributed processing systems, called functionally accurate, cooperative (FA/C), is proposed. The approach differs from conventional ones in its emphasis on handling distribution-caused uncertainty and errors...

Dynamic Thermal Management for Distributed Systems

Andreas Weißel, Frank Bellosa • Repository KITopen (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) (2004)

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 ...

DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM-A TOOL FOR BUILDING DEPENDABLE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM

Prof. Ravish Kumar Mishra Dr. JaiPrakash Sirur • Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) (2012)

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 ...
