An axiomatic basis of trust in distributed systems

P. Venkat Rangan • IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy (S&P) (2003)

He introduces basic notions about developing a logic or a theory, and shows that modal logics of belief, with their Kripe-style possible-worlds semantics, are appropriate for basing a theory of trust on. He reviews a modal logic of belief, ...

Load balancing in distributed systems

Anna Hác • ACM SIGMETRICS Performance Evaluation Review (1989)

Most distributed systems are characterized by distribution of both physical and logical features. The architecture of a distributed system is usually modular. Most distributed systems support a varying number of processing elements. The sys...

Policy hierarchies for distributed systems management

Jonathan Moffett, Morris S. Sloman • IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (1993)

Distributed system management, involves monitoring the activity of a system, making management decisions and performing control actions to modify the behavior of the system. Most of the research on management has concentrated on management ...

Fault Tolerance Mechanisms in Distributed Systems

Arif Sarı, Murat Akkaya • International Journal of Communications Network and System Sciences (2015)

The use of technology has increased vastly and today computer systems are interconnected via different communication medium. The use of distributed systems in our day to day activities has solely improved with data distributions. This is be...

Task assignment in distributed systems

Virginia M. Lo • Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) (1983)

This thesis addresses the problem of task assignment in distributed systems. A distributed system is defined as any configuration of two or more processors, each with private memory, in which computations utilize the combined resources of t...

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...
