The vast majority of papers on distributed computing assume that processes are assigned unique identifiers before computation begins. But is this assumption necessary? What if processes do not have unique identifiers or do not wish to divulge them for reas ...
Abstract. The vast majority of papers on distributed computing assume that processes are assigned unique identifiers before computation begins. But is this assumption necessary? What if processes do not have unique identifiers or do not wish to divulge the ...
This paper studies the time complexity of reading unauthenticated data from a distributed storage made of a set of failure-prone base objects. More specifically, we consider the abstraction of a robust read/write storage that provides wait-free access to u ...

A contention manager is a shared memory abstraction that boosts progress of obstruction-free algorithms. In this paper, we study the problem of the overhead of non-blocking and wait-free contention managers which use the minimal possible information about ...
Mobile agents constitute a computing paradigm of a more general nature than the widely used client/server computing paradigm. A mobile agent is essentially a computer program that acts autonomously on behalf of a user and travels through a network of heter ...
