Decoupling contention management from scheduling

Anastasia Ailamaki, Frederick Ryan Johnson, Radu Ioan Stoica

Many parallel applications exhibit unpredictable communication between threads, leading to contention for shared objects. The choice of contention management strategy impacts strongly the performance and scalability of these applications: spinning provides ...

A Provably Starvation-Free Distributed Directory Protocol

Vincent Gramoli, Hagit Albo Attiya

This paper presents Combine, a distributed directory protocol for shared objects, designed for large-scale distributed systems. Directory protocols support move requests, allowing to write the object locally, as well as lookup requests, providing a read-on ...

Private Sharing of User Location over Online Social Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Julien Freudiger, Raoul Neu

Online social networks increasingly allow mobile users to share their location with their friends. Much to the detriment of users’ privacy, this also means that social network operators collect users’ lo- cation. Similarly, third parties can learn users’ l ...

Extending Peer-to-Peer Networks for Approximate Search

Ion Constantinescu, Michael Ignaz Schumacher, Roman Schmidt, Alain Mowat

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks are used worldwide for many applications such as file sharing or news servers. There are many different implementations available, each with its pros and cons. In this paper, we propose a way to enable approximate queries in a P ...

Adaptive Shared Control of a Brain-Actuated Simulated Wheelchair

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Eileen Lew Yi Lee, Pierre Ferrez

The use of shared control techniques has a profound impact on the performance of a robotic assistant controlled by human brain signals. However, this shared control usually provides assistance to the user in a constant and identical manner each time. Creat ...

Peer Sharing Behaviour in the eDonkey Network, and Implications for the Design of Server-less File Sharing Systems

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Sidath Handurukande

In this paper we present an empirical study of a workload gathered by crawling the eDonkey network - a dominant peer-to-peer file sharing system - for over 50 days. We first confirm the presence of some known features, in particular the prevalence of free- ...

Mobile User Navigation Supported by WSAN: Full-fledge Demo of the SmartPark System

Matthias Grossglauser, Aristidis Papaioannou

The purpose of this demonstration is to illustrate that an off-the-shelf Wireless Sensor and Actuator Network (WSAN) can be used to discover resource availability and guide mobile users to these resources without any support from a navigation system like G ...

Designing Message-Dependent Deadlock Free Networks on Chips for Application-Specific Systems on Chips

Giovanni De Micheli, David Atienza Alonso, Luca Benini, Srinivasan Murali, Federico Angiolini

Networks on Chip (NoC) has emerged as the paradigm for designing scalable communication architecture for Systems on Chips (SoCs). Avoiding the conditions that can lead to deadlocks in the network is critical for using NoCs in real designs. Methods that can ...
