Generic Broadcast

André Schiper, Fernando Pedone

Message ordering is a fundamental abstraction in distributed systems. However, usual ordering guarantees are purely syntactic'', that is, message semantics'' is not taken into consideration, despite the fact that in several cases semantic information a ...

Cacheable Interface Control Registers for High Speed Data Transfer

Babak Falsafi, David Wood

A device interface for communicating between a processor system and a separate device employs cacheable control registers, both to indicate the receipt of a message and to receive messages to be transmitted. The data structure of the cacheable control regi ...

Quantifying the Performance Differences Between PVM and TreadMarks

Willy Zwaenepoel, Sandhya Dwarkadas

We compare two systems for parallel programming on networks of workstations: Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) a message passing system, and TreadMarks, a software distributed shared memory (DSM) system. We present results for eight applications that were imp ...

Virtual human representation and communication in VLNet

Daniel Thalmann

Using virtual humans to represent participants promotes realism in networked VEs. Different message types used to animate the human body and face impose varying network requirements, as analyzed here ...

Tradeoffs between False Sharing and Aggregation in Software Distributed Shared Memory

Willy Zwaenepoel

Software Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) systems based on virtual memory techniques traditionally use the hardware page as the consistency unit. The large size of the hardware page is considered to be a performance bottleneck because of the implied false s ...

Secure and minimal protocols for authenticated key distribution

Philippe Janson

The problem of secure key distribution has been the subject of much attention in recent years. This paper describes a novel method for authenticated key distribution in the distributed systems environment. In particular, a braiding technique for key distri ...
