Limiting Lamport Exposure to Distant Failures in Globally-Managed Distributed Systems
Bryan Alexander Ford, Verónica del Carmen Estrada Galiñanes, Pierluca Borsò, Kelong Cong, Georgia Fragkouli, Enis Ceyhun Alp, Cristina Basescu, Gaylor Bosson
Globalized computing infrastructures offer the convenience and elasticity of globally managed objects and services, but lack the resilience to distant failures that localized infrastructures such as private clouds provide. Providing both global management ...
2022Hardware-Software Co-Design of an RPC Processor
The booming popularity of online services has led to a major evolution in the way these services are built and deployed. To cope with such online data-intensive services, service providers deploy several massive-scale datacenters, also referred to as wareh ...
EPFL2021Modified Joint Channel-and-Data Estimation for One-Bit Massive MIMO
Mahdi Amiri, Saeed Saadatnejad, Mohammadhossein Bahari
Centralized and cloud computing-based network architectures are the promising tracks of future communication systems where a large scale compute power can be virtualized for various algorithms. These architectures rely on high-performance communication lin ...
IEEE2021CALYPSO: Private Data Management for Decentralized Ledgers
Bryan Alexander Ford, Linus Gasser, Eleftherios Kokoris Kogias, Philipp Svetolik Jovanovic, Enis Ceyhun Alp
Distributed ledgers provide high availability and integrity, making them a key enabler for practical and secure computation of distributed workloads among mutually distrustful parties. Many practical applications also require strong confidentiality, howeve ...
2021When to Hedge in Interactive Services
In online data-intensive (OLDI) services, each client request typically executes on multiple servers in parallel; as a result, “system hiccups”, although rare within a single server, can interfere with many client requests and cause violations of service-l ...
USENIX2021The Cost of Scaling a Reliable Interconnection Topology
Rachid Guerraoui, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer
In distributed computing, many papers try to evaluate the message complexity of a distributed system as a function of the number of nodes n. But what about the cost of building the distributed system itself? Assuming that we want to reliably connect n node ...

Babak Falsafi, Christoph Koch, Siddharth Gupta, Mario Paulo Drumond Lages De Oliveira, Mark Johnathon Sutherland, Arash Pourhabibi Zarandi, Zilu Tian, Hussein Kassir
Modern online services are shifting away from monolithic applications to loosely-coupled microservices because of their improved scalability, reliability, programmability and development velocity. Microservices communicating over the datacenter network req ...

ASSOC COMPUTING MACHINERY2020Spikyball Sampling: Exploring Large Networks via an Inhomogeneous Filtered Diffusion
Nicolas Aspert, Volodymyr Miz, Benjamin Ricaud
Studying real-world networks such as social networks or web networks is a challenge. These networks often combine a complex, highly connected structure together with a large size. We propose a new approach for large scale networks that is able to automatic ...
2020HovercRaft: Achieving Scalability and Fault-tolerance for microsecond-scale Datacenter Services
Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias
Cloud platform services must simultaneously be scalable, meet low tail latency service-level objectives, and be resilient to a combination of software, hardware, and network failures. Replication plays a fundamental role in meeting both the scalability and ...
