Peter Urban, Xavier Defago and Andre Schiper: Chasing the FLP Impossibility Result in a LAN or How Robust Can a Fault Tolerant Server Be? Keywords: replication, atomic broadcast, consensus, measurements, robustness, high load, LAN, FLP impossibility Abstra ...
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 ...

Structured overlay networks is an important and interesting primitive that can be used by diverse peer-to-peer applications. Multiple overlays can result either because of network partitioning or (more likely) because different groups of peers build such o ...
Storage class memory is receiving increasing attention for use in HPC systems for the acceleration of intensive IO operations. We report a particular instance using SLC FLASH memory integrated with an IBM BlueGene/Q supercomputer at scale (Blue Gene Active ...
