Recent decentralised event-based systems have focused on providing event delivery which scales with increasing number of processes. While the main focus of research has been on ensuring that processes maintain only a small amount of information on maintain ...
Dynamic parallel schedules (DPS) is a flow graph based framework for developing parallel applications on clusters of workstations. The DPS flow graph execution model enables automatic pipelined parallel execution of applications. DPS supports graceful degr ...
Group communication provides primitives that ensure reliable and ordered delivery of messages to a group of destinations. It is an important building block for replicated fault-tolerant applications such as replicated databases. In the past, most group com ...
Concurrency and failures are fundamental problems in distributed computing. One likes to think that the mechanisms needed to address these problems can be separated from the rest of the distributed application: in modern words, these mechanisms could be as ...
Commodity computer clusters are often composed of hundreds of computing nodes. These generally off-the-shelf systems are not designed for high reliability. Node failures therefore drive the MTBF of such clusters to unacceptable levels. The software framewo ...

Over the past years, mobile agent technology has attracted considerable attention, and a significant body of literature has been published. To further develop mobile agent technology, reliability mechanisms such as fault tolerance and transaction support a ...

Dynamic Parallel Schedules (DPS) is a high-level framework for developing parallel applications on distributed memory computers such as clusters of PCs. DPS applications are defined by using directed acyclic flow graphs composed of user-defined operations. ...
Today, there is no doubt that optical networks are the solution to the explosion of Internet traffic that two decades ago we only dreamed about. They offer high capacity with the use of Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) techniques among others. Howeve ...
