Hierarchical Micromold Structuring via 2PP Micro-Stereolithography

Inspired by nature, a common way to create hydrophobic surfaces is by introducing hierarchical and fractal microstructures on surface. While plenty of studies have demonstratedcreating PDC (polymer derived ceramic) for several applications include SiC-fibe ...

System Support for Efficient Replication in Distributed Systems

Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi

Current online applications, such as search engines, social networks, or file sharing services, execute across a distributed network of machines. They provide non-stop services to their users despite failures in the underlying network. To achieve such a hi ...

PaRiS: Causally Consistent Transactions with Non-blocking Reads and Partial Replication

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

Geo-replicated data platforms are at the backbone of several large-scale online services. Transactional Causal Consistency (TCC) is an attractive consistency level for building such platforms. TCC avoids many anomalies of eventual consistency, eschews the ...

The weakest failure detector for eventual consistency

Rachid Guerraoui, Pierre Sens

In its classical form, a consistent replicated service requires all replicas to witness the same evolution of the service state. If we consider an asynchronous messagepassing environment in which processes might fail by crashing, and assume that a majority ...

Integration of ecosystem services in regional spatial plans in Western Switzerland

Jérôme Chenal, Rémi Jaligot

The concept of ecosystem services (ES) is regarded as an increasingly important framework and tool to support spatial planning. A limited understanding of how ES knowledge is used in spatial plans constrains our ability to learn from, replicate, and convey ...

Reliable and Robust Cyber-Physical Systems for Real-Time Control of Electric Grids

Wajeb Saab

Real-time control of electric grids is a novel approach to handling the increasing penetration of distributed and volatile energy generation brought about by renewables. Such control occurs in cyber-physical systems (CPSs), in which software agents maintai ...

The Consensus Number of a Cryptocurrency

Rachid Guerraoui, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Matej Pavlovic, Matteo Monti

Many blockchain-based algorithms, such as Bitcoin, implement a decentralized asset transfer system, often referred to as a cryptocurrency. As stated in the original paper by Nakamoto, at the heart of these systems lies the problem of preventing double-spen ...

FCR: Fast and Consistent Controller-Replication in Software Defined Networking

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Eleni Stai, Mia Primorac, Maaz Mashood Mohiuddin

We consider the problem of coordination among replicated SDN controllers, where the challenge is to ensure a consistent view of the network while reacting to network events in a prompt manner. Existing solutions are either consensus-based, which achieve co ...

Threshold Logical Clocks for Asynchronous Distributed Coordination and Consensus

Bryan Alexander Ford

Consensus protocols for asynchronous networks are usually complex and inefficient, leading practical systems to rely on synchronous protocols. This paper attempts to simplify asynchronous consensus by building atop a novel threshold logical clock abstracti ...
