The following dissertation addresses one aspect of cooperative editing which has not been well examined until now : the consideration of hardware limitations imposed by a large scale distributed system (namely the Internet). This system model implies heter ...
Transaction Reordering in Replicated Databases F.Pedone, R.Guerraoui and A.Schiper This paper presents a fault-tolerant lazy replication protocol that ensures 1-copy serializability at a relatively low cost. Unlike eager replication approaches, our protoco ...
Using density functional calculations in the generalized gradient approximation, the energetics of competing atomic processes occuring during the oxidation of silicon are evaluated. Simple molecular systems are used to model the breaking of Si-Si and Si-O ...
Stable storage can be seen as an ideal storage medium that, given a set of failure assumptions, protects user data from corruption or loss. The integrity of the stored data must be guaranteed even in the presence of crash failures. In this paper, we show h ...

Parallelizing an algorithm consists of dividing the computation into a set of sequential operations, assigning the operations to threads, synchronizing the execution of threads, specifying the data transfer requirements between threads and mapping the thre ...
Sequential consistency and causal consistency constitute two of the main consistency criteria used to define the semantics of accesses in the shared memory model. An execution is sequentially consistent if all processes can agree on a same legal sequential ...
Database replication protocols based on group communication primitives have recently emerged as a promising technology to improve database fault-tolerance and performance. Roughly speaking, this approach consists in exploiting the order and atomicity prope ...
