Genuinely distributed Byzantine machine learning

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Le Nguyen Hoang, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault, Arsany Hany Abdelmessih Guirguis

Machine learning (ML) solutions are nowadays distributed, according to the so-called server/worker architecture. One server holds the model parameters while several workers train the model. Clearly, such architecture is prone to various types of component ...

Who Started This Rumor? Quantifying the Natural Differential Privacy of Gossip Protocols

Rachid Guerraoui, Hadrien Hendrikx

Gossip protocols (also called rumor spreading or epidemic protocols) are widely used to disseminate information in massive peer-to-peer networks. These protocols are often claimed to guarantee privacy because of the uncertainty they introduce on the node t ...

Systems and method for anonymous, low-latencey, tracking-resistant communications in a networked environment

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Bryan Alexander Ford, Italo Ivan Dacosta Petrocelli, Ludovic Barman

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure provide cryptographically-strong tracking protection with unnoticeable "single-hop" network latencies by leveraging a client-relay- server architecture, in which the clients, relays (trusted or untrusted), an ...

Optimistic Causal Consistency for Geo-Replicated Key-Value Stores

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

Causal consistency is an attractive consistency model for geo-replicated data stores because it hits a sweet spot in the ease of programmability vs performance trade-off. In this paper we propose a new approach to causal consistency, which we call Optimist ...

PriFi: A Low-Latency and Tracking-Resistant Protocol for Local-Area Anonymous Communication

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Bryan Alexander Ford, Mahdi Zamani, Italo Ivan Dacosta Petrocelli, Ludovic Barman

Popular anonymity mechanisms such as Tor provide low communication latency but are vulnerable to traffic analysis attacks that can de-anonymize users. Moreover, known traffic-analysis-resistant techniques such as Dissent are impractical for use in latency- ...

Top-k/w publish/subscribe: A publish/subscribe model for continuous top-k processing over data streams

Karl Aberer, Ivana Podnar, Kresimir Pripuzic

Continuous processing of top-k queries over data streams is a promising technique for alleviating the information overload problem as it distinguishes relevant from irrelevant data stream objects with respect to a given scoring function over time. Thus it ...

Correlation-Aware Virtual Machine Allocation for Energy-Efficient Datacenters

David Atienza Alonso, Martino Ruggiero, Jungsoo Kim, Marcel Ledergerber

Server consolidation plays a key role to mitigate the continuous power increase of datacenters. The recent advent of scale-out applications (e.g., web search, MapReduce, etc.) necessitate the revisit of existing server consolidation solutions due to distin ...
