A performance study of monitoring and information services for distributed systems

X. Zhang, Jeffrey L. Freschl, Jennifer M. Schopf • ACM International Symposium on High-Performance Parallel and Distributed Computing (HPDC) (2004)

Monitoring and information services form a key component of a distributed system, or Grid. A quantitative study of such services can aid in understanding the performance limitations, advise in the deployment of the monitoring system, and he...

Grid services for distributed system integration

Ian T Foster, Carl Kesselman, J.M. Nick, Steven John Tuecke • Computer (2002)

Increasingly, computing addresses collaboration, data sharing, and interaction modes that involve distributed resources, resulting in an increased focus on the interconnection of systems both within and across enterprises. These evolutionar...

Selfish caching in distributed systems

Byung-Gon Chun, Kamalika Chaudhuri, Hoeteck Wee, Marco Barreno et al. • ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC) (2004)

We analyze replication of resources by server nodes that act selfishly, using a game-theoretic approach. We refer to this as the selfish caching problem. In our model, nodes incur either cost for replicating resources or cost for access to ...

Constructing adaptive software in distributed systems

Wen-Ke Chen, Matti A. Hiltunen, Richard D. Schlichting • Proceedings of the ... International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems/Proceedings of the International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems (2002)

Adaptive software that can react to changes in the execution environment or user requirements by switching algorithms at run time is powerful yet difficult to implement, especially in distributed systems. This paper describes a software arc...

Maintaining the time in a distributed system

Keith Marzullo, Susan S. Owicki • ACM Symposium on Principles of Distributed Computing (PODC) (1983)

To a client of a loosely-coupled distributed system, one of the simplest services is a time service. Usually the client simply requests the time from any subset of the time servers making up the service, and uses the first reply. Issues tha...

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...
