CrystalBall: predicting and preventing inconsistencies in deployed distributed systems

Maysam Yabandeh, Nikola Knežević, Dejan Kostić, Viktor Kunčak • Infoscience (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) (2009)

We propose a new approach for developing and deploying distributed systems, in which nodes predict distributed consequences of their actions, and use this information to detect and avoid errors. Each node continuously runs a state explorati...

On the controllability of distributed systems

J. L. Lions • Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (1997)

To "control" a system is to make it behave (hopefully) according to our "wishes," in a way compatible with safety and ethics, at the least possible cost. The systems considered here are distributed-i.e., governed (modeled) by partial differ...
