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 way to a distributed systems calculus

Markus Fidler, Jens Burkhard Schmitt • ACM SIGMETRICS Performance Evaluation Review (2006)

Network calculus is a min-plus system theory which facilitates the efficient derivation of performance bounds for networks of queues. It has successfully been applied to provide end-to-end quality of service guarantees for integrated and di...

Greybox Fuzzing of Distributed Systems

Ruijie Meng, George Pîrlea, Abhik Roychoudhury, Ilya Sergey • ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS) (2023)

Grey-box fuzzing is the lightweight approach of choice for finding bugs in sequential programs. It provides a balance between efficiency and effectiveness by conducting a biased random search over the domain of program inputs using a feedba...

Distributed Systems

Vivek S Kale • CRC Press eBooks (2018)

The origins of big data technologies come from database systems and distributed systems as well as data mining and machine learning algorithms that can process these vast amounts of data to extract the necessary knowledge. This chapter addr...

Distributed Systems

Ulrich Matter • Chapman & Hall/CRC eBooks (2023)

When we connect several computers in a network to jointly process large amounts of data, such a computing system is commonly referred to as a “distributed system”. From a technical standpoint the key difference between a distributed system ...

Distributed Systems

Richard John Anthony • Elsevier eBooks (2015)

We now delve into one final major theme of our text: distribution. In this part of the book, we will explore some of the underlying tech-nology in one of the most important aspect of modern systems: how to build distributed systems. Distrib...

Distributed systems

Jos Marlowe, Doug Lea, Malcolm Atkinson • Encyclopedia of Computer Science (2003)

Nearly all large software systems are necessarily distributed. For example, enterprise-wide business systems must support multiple users running common applications across different sites. A distributed system encompasses these applications...

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...

Distributed Systems

John A. Hamilton, David A. Nash, Udo W. Pooch • CRC Press eBooks (2020)

Multiple processor systems may be divided into two general categories: parallel processors (multiprocessors) and distributed systems (multicomputers). The distributed simulations, that is, simulations implemented over distributed systems. P...

Failure detectors for large-scale distributed systems

Naohiro Hayashibara, Adel Cherif, Takeshi Katayama • IEEE Symposium on Reliable Distributed Systems (SRDS) (2003)

This paper discusses the problem of implementing a scalable failure detection service for grid systems. More specifically, traditional implementations of failure detectors are often tuned for running over local networks and fail to address ...
