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 ...

Dynamic Thermal Management for Distributed Systems

Andreas Weißel, Frank Bellosa • Repository KITopen (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) (2004)

In modern data centers, the impact on the thermal properties by increased scale and power densities is enormous and poses new challenges on the designers of both computing as well as cooling systems. Controltheoretic techniques have proven ...

A Formal Composition of a Distributed System Formal Composition of a Distributed System Formal Composition of a Distributed System Formal Composition of a Distributed System

Wadie Krombi, Mohamed Mustapha Kabbaj, M. Erradi, Mohammed V-Souissi (2014)

Nowadays, information systems are becoming a vital and st rategic component of any organization. However, in most cases, these systems are designed and implemented without taking into consideration aspects. To ensure a certain level of secu...

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...

FAULT-DIAGNOSIS IN FULLY DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS

Jon G. Kuhl, Sudhakar M. Reddy • IEEE International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing (2005)

The problem of diagnosis of failures, at the system level, in large, truly distributed networks of processing elements is considered. A model proposed earlier, in which nodes of the network perform tests upon certain neighboring nodes and p...

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...

Visualizing Distributed System Executions

Ivan Beschastnikh, Perry Liu, Albert Xing, Patty Wang et al. • ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology (2020)

Distributed systems pose unique challenges for software developers. Understanding the system’s communication topology and reasoning about concurrent activities of system hosts can be difficult. The standard approach, analyzing system logs, ...

Monitoring distributed systems

Masoud Mansouri-Samani, Morris S. Sloman • IEEE Network (1993)

It is suggested that a functional model of monitoring in terms of the generation, processing, dissemination, and presentation of information can help determine the facilities needed to design and construct distributed systems. Implementatio...

Caching Hints in Distributed Systems

Doug Terry • IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering (1987)

Caching reduces the average cost of retrieving data by amortizing the lookup cost over several references to the data. Problems with maintaining strong cache consistency in a distributed system can be avoided by treating cached information ...

The right type of trust for distributed systems

Audun Jøsang • New Security Paradigms Workshop (1996)

Research in information security has traditionally focused on where to place or how to propagate trust.In that sense, a cyptographic algorithm or protocol is simply a mechanism to transfer trust from where it exists to where it is needed.Th...
