Quantum Computing for the Quantum Curious

Ciaran Hughes, Joshua Isaacson, Anastasia Perry, Ranbel F. Sun et al. • Springer eBooks (2021)

This open access textbook uses simple language and minimal math to explain quantum computing and the key physical ideas behind it. It bridges the gap between pop-sci articles and advanced textbooks and can be used for self-study or adapted ...

Quantum Computing in Medicine

James C. L. Chow • Medical Sciences (2024)

Quantum computing (QC) represents a paradigm shift in computational power, offering unique capabilities for addressing complex problems that are infeasible for classical computers. This review paper provides a detailed account of the curren...

Endorsements, licensing, and insurance for distributed system services

Gennady Medvinsky, Charlie Lai, Clifford Neuman • ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS) (1994)

Clients in a distributed system place their confidence in many servers, and servers themselves rely on other servers for file storage, authentication, authorization, and payment. When a system spans administrative boundaries it becomes hard...

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...

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...

Pegasus: A Framework for Mapping Complex Scientific Workflows onto Distributed Systems

Ewa Deelman, Gurmeet Singh, Mei-Hui Su, James Blythe et al. • Scientific Programming (2005)

This paper describes the Pegasus framework that can be used to map complex scientific workflows onto distributed resources. Pegasus enables users to represent the workflows at an abstract level without needing to worry about the particulars...

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...

Authentication in distributed systems

Butler Lampson, Martı́n Abadi, Michael T. Burrows, Edward P. Wobber • ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review (1991)

We describe a theory of authentication and a system that implements it. Our theory is based on the notion of principal and a "speaks for" relation between principals. A simple principal either has a name or is a communication channel; a com...

A Behavioral Approach to Control of Distributed Systems

Harish K. Pillai, Shiva Shankar • SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization (1999)

This paper develops a theory of control for distributed systems (i.e., those defined by systems of constant coefficient partial differential operators) via the behavioral approach of Willems. The study here is algebraic in the sense that it...
