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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
