Parallel Spectral Clustering in Distributed Systems

Wen-Yen Chen, Yangqiu Song, Hongjie Bai, Chih‐Jen Lin et al. • IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (2010)

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 ...

Policy hierarchies for distributed systems management

Jonathan Moffett, Morris S. Sloman • IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (1993)

Distributed system management, involves monitoring the activity of a system, making management decisions and performing control actions to modify the behavior of the system. Most of the research on management has concentrated on management ...

Metastable failures in distributed systems

Nathan Grasso Bronson, Abutalib Aghayev, Aleksey Charapko, Timothy Zhu • Workshop on Hot Topics in Operating Systems (2021)

We describe metastable failures---a failure pattern in distributed systems. Currently, metastable failures manifest themselves as black swan events; they are outliers because nothing in the past points to their possibility, have a severe im...

Visualizing Distributed System Executions

Ivan Beschastnikh, Perry Liu, Albert Xing, Patty Wang et al. • ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology (2020)

Distributed systems pose unique challenges for software developers. Understanding the system’s communication topology and reasoning about concurrent activities of system hosts can be difficult. The standard approach, analyzing system logs, ...

Cybersecurity For Defense Economists

Daniel G. Arce • Defence and Peace Economics (2022)

Cybersecurity plays a role in national security. This study introduces cybersecurity concepts in ways familiar to defense economists and identifies parallel methods of analysis in the fields. The theoretical tools of both fields include mic...

Artificial Intelligence Safety and Cybersecurity: a Timeline of AI Failures

Roman V. Yampolskiy, M. S. Spellchecker • arXiv (Cornell University) (2016)

In this work, we present and analyze reported failures of artificially intelligent systems and extrapolate our analysis to future AIs. We suggest that both the frequency and the seriousness of future AI failures will steadily increase. AI S...

Cybersecurity as a Politikum

Laura Fichtner, Wolter Pieters, Andre M. H. Teixeira • New Security Paradigms Workshop (2016)

In the cybersecurity community it is common to think of security as a design feature for systems and infrastructures that may be difficult to balance with other requirements. What is less studied is how security requirements come about, for...
