Never Say Never Probabilistic & Temporal Failure Detectors (Extended)

Rachid Guerraoui, David Kozhaya, Yvonne Anne Pignolet-Oswald

The failure detector approach for solving distributed computing problems has been celebrated for its modularity. This approach allows the construction of algorithms using abstract failure detection mechanisms, defined by axiomatic properties, as building b ...

Right On Time Distributed Shared Memory

Rachid Guerraoui, David Kozhaya, Yvonne Anne Pignolet-Oswald

The demand for real-time data storage in distributed control systems (DCSs) is growing. Yet, providing real- time DCS guarantees is challenging, especially when more and more sensor and actuator devices are connected to industrial plants and message loss n ...

Simultaneous Acoustic Localization of Multiple Smartphones with Euclidean Distance Matrices

Seyed Mohsen Moosavi Dezfooli, Yvonne Anne Pignolet-Oswald

In this paper, we present an acoustic localization system for multiple devices. In contrast to systems which localize a device relative to one or several anchor points, we focus on the joint localization of several devices relative to each other. We presen ...

Who's On Board? Probabilistic Membership for Real-Time Distributed Control Systems (Extended)

Rachid Guerraoui, David Kozhaya, Yvonne Anne Pignolet-Oswald

To increase their dependability, distributed control systems (DCSs) need to agree in real time about which hosts have crashed, i.e., they need a real-time membership service. In this paper, we prove that such a service cannot be implemented deterministical ...
