We address the problem of secure and fault-tolerant communication in the presence of adversaries across a multihop wireless network with frequently changing topology. To effectively cope with arbitrary malicious disruption of data transmissions, we propose ...
Recent work has shown the advantages of using persistent memory for transaction processing. In particular, the Vista transaction system uses recoverable memory to avoid disk I/O, thus improving performance by several orders of magnitude. In such a system, ...
As the geometries of the transistors reach the physical limits of operation, one of the main design challenges of Systems-on-Chips (SoCs) will be to provide dynamic (run-time) support against permanent and intermittent faults that can occur in the system. ...
This paper presents a top-down approach to the design of all-silicon CMOS-based fully integrated optical receivers. From the system-level requirements, we determine the optimum block-level specifications, based on which the individual building blocks are d ...
In the scope of the development of a complete top-down design flow targeting clock and data recovery circuits for high-speed data links, we present two methods to analyze the jitter tolerance of such links, based on statistical simulation of incoming data ...
As dictated by ongoing technology scaling and the advent of multi-core systems, each new generation of microprocessors and digital signal processors provides higher computing power and data throughput. However, the available bandwidth of the input/output ( ...
This paper presents x-ability (Exactly-once-ability): a correctness criteria for replicated services. X-ability provides the illusion that the actions executed by a replicated service are executed exactly-once, even if these actions have been actually exec ...
Parallel servers for I/O and compute intensive continuous media applications are difficult to develop. A server application comprises many threads located in different address spaces as well as files striped over multiple disks located on different compute ...
Saving internal program data for further use is one of the most useful ideas in programming. Developing general features to provide such data saving/restoring is a very active research area. There are two application areas for such features we believe to b ...
We present a novel peer-to-peer backup technique that allows computers connected to the Internet to back up their data cooperatively: Each computer has a set of partner computers, which collectively hold its backup data. In return, it holds a part of each ...
