The complexity of reliable distributed storage

Distributed storage systems based on commodity hardware have gained in popularity because they are cheaper, can be made more reliable and offer better scalability than centralized storage systems. However, implementing and managing such systems is more com ...

Efficient Distributed Subtyping Tests

Rachid Guerraoui, João Barreto, Patrick Eugster

Subtyping tests are essential in typed publish/subscribe infrastructures, especially when the underlying programming language supports subtype conformance, as in Java or C#. These tests are particularly challenging when the publish/subscribe infrastructure ...

The Perfectly-Synchronized Round-based Model of Distributed Computing

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon

The perfectly-synchronized round-based model provides the powerful abstraction of crash-stop failures with atomic and synchronous message delivery. This abstraction makes distributed programming very easy.We describe a technique to automatically transform ...

Type-based event dissemination

Sébastien Bähni

With the explosion of broadband Internet connections in the late 80s, new types of applications, called distributed applications, came to light. These applications typically seek to provide a user with remote services that appear to that user as if they we ...

Community-Aware Event Dissemination

Rachid Guerraoui, Oana Anca Jurca, Patrick Eugster

This paper presents a distributed algorithm to disseminate events in a publish/subscribe system, where processes publish events of certain topics, organized in a hierarchy, and expect events of topics they subscribed to. Every topic defines a dynamic notio ...

High Throughput Total Order Broadcast for Cluster Environments

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon, Ron Levy

Total order broadcast is a fundamental communication primitive that plays a central role in bringing cheap software-based high availability to a wide array of services. This paper studies the practical performance of such a primitive on a cluster of homoge ...

Playback Delay Optimization in Scalable Video Streaming

Pascal Frossard, Jean-Paul Wagner

This paper addresses the problem of optimizing the playback delay experienced by a population of heterogeneous clients, in video streaming applications. We consider a typical broadcast scenario, where clients subscribe to different portions of a scalable v ...

Data-Aware Multicast

Rachid Guerraoui, Patrick Eugster

This paper presents a multicast algorithm for peer-to-peer dissemination of events in a distributed topic-based publish-subscribe system, where processes publish events of certain topics, organized in a hierarchy, and expect events of topics they subscribe ...

GosSkip: a Gossip-based Structured Overlay Network for Efficient Content-based Filtering

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Sidath Handurukande

It is appealing to implement publish/subscribe systems in a peer to peer (P2P) manner to circumvent the scalability issues of broker-based (semi-decentralized) systems and simplify the deployment. While existing P2P generic infrastructures provide a scalab ...

Distributed programming with typed events

Rachid Guerraoui, Patrick Eugster

The remote-procedure-call abstraction, including its derivates (underlying, for example, Java RMI, CORBA, and .NET), currently represents one of the most popular paradigms for devising distributed applications. Objects (when acting as servers) are invoked ...
