As the level of parallelism in manycore processors keeps increasing, providing efficient mechanisms for thread synchronization in concurrent programs is becoming a major concern. On cache-coherent shared-memory processors, synchronization efficiency is ult ...
Self-stabilization ensures that, after any transient fault, the system recovers in a finite time and eventually exhibits correct behavior. Speculation consists in guaranteeing that the system satisfies its requirements for any execution but exhibits signif ...

Achieving sub-millisecond response times in a managed language environment such as Java introduces significant implementation challenges. The Achilles' heel of Java is its reliance on automatic memory management for reclaiming dead objects. Typically, the ...
One of the key trends in computing over the past two decades has been increased distribution, both at the processor level, where multi-core architectures are now the norm, and at the system level, where many key services are currently distributed overmulti ...
Due to environmental concerns and strict constraints on interference imposed on other networks, the radiated power of emerging pervasive wireless networks needs to be strictly limited, yet without sacrificing acceptable data rates. Pulsed Time-Hopping Ultr ...
Many problems in distributed computing are impossible to solve when no information about process failures is available. It is common to ask what information about failures is necessary and sufficient to circumvent some specific impossibility, e. g., consen ...
This thesis studies communication and agreement protocols in wireless ad hoc networks from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The last decade has given rise to the rapid growth of wireless telecommunications such as cellular mobile phone networks ...

We consider the design of the MAC layer for low power, low data-rate, impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) networks. In such networks, the primary concern is energy consumption rather than rate efficiency. We explore several dimensions such as power cont ...
