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 ...

Fault Tolerance Mechanisms in Distributed Systems

Arif Sarı, Murat Akkaya • International Journal of Communications Network and System Sciences (2015)

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...

Task assignment in distributed systems

Virginia M. Lo • Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) (1983)

This thesis addresses the problem of task assignment in distributed systems. A distributed system is defined as any configuration of two or more processors, each with private memory, in which computations utilize the combined resources of t...

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...

Power and Energy Profiling of Scientific Applications on Distributed Systems

Xizhou Feng, Rong Ge, Kirk W. Cameron • IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS) (2005)

Power consumption is a troublesome design constraint for emergent systems such as IBM's BlueGene /L. If current trends continue, future petaflop systems will require 100 megawatts of power to maintain high-performance. To address this probl...

FAULT-DIAGNOSIS IN FULLY DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS

Jon G. Kuhl, Sudhakar M. Reddy • IEEE International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing (2005)

The problem of diagnosis of failures, at the system level, in large, truly distributed networks of processing elements is considered. A model proposed earlier, in which nodes of the network perform tests upon certain neighboring nodes and p...

Detection of Mutual Inconsistency in Distributed Systems

D. Stott Parker, Gerald J. Popek, G. Rudisin, Alley Stoughton et al. • IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering (1983)

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...

An integrated experimental environment for distributed systems and networks

Brian White, Jay Lepreau, Leigh B. Stoller, Robert Ricci et al. • ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review (2002)

Three experimental environments traditionally support network and distributed systems research: network emulators, network simulators, and live networks. The continued use of multiple approaches highlights both the value and inadequacy of e...

The evolution of distributed systems towards microservices architecture

Tasneem Salah, Mohamed Jamal Zemerly, Chan Yeob Yeun, Mahmoud Al‐Qutayri et al. • International Conference for Internet Technology and Secured Transactions (2016)

Applications developed to fulfil distributed systems needs have been growing rapidly. Major evolutions have happened beginning with basic architecture relying on initiated request by a client to a processing side referred to as the server. ...

The timed asynchronous distributed system model

Flaviu Cristian, Christof W. Fetzer • IEEE International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing (2002)

We propose a formal definition for the timed asynchronous distributed system model and we describe extensive measurements of actual message and process scheduling delays and hardware clock drifts that confirm that this model adequately desc...

The LOCUS Distributed System Architecture

Gerald J. Popek • The MIT Press eBooks (1986)

LOCUS, a distributed version of the popular operating system Unix, provides an excellent solution. It makes a collection of computers, whether they are workstations or mainframes, as easy to use as a single computer by providing a set of su...
