In many distributed systems, designing an application that maintains consistency and availability despite failure of processes, involves solving some form of agreement. Not surprisingly, providing efficient agreement algorithms is critical for improving th ...
We consider shift-invariant multiresolution spaces generated by rotation-covariant functions ρ in R2 . To construct corresponding scaling and wavelet functions, ρ has to be localized with an appropriate multiplier, such that the localized ...
Current cluster architectures provide the ideal environment to run federations of main-memory database systems (FMMDBs). In FMMDBs, data resides in the main memory of the federation servers, significantly improving performance by avoiding I/O during the ex ...
Multi Agent Systems (MAS) have recently attracted a lot of interest because of their ability to model many real life scenarios where information and control are distributed among a set of different agents. Practical applications include planning, schedulin ...
Distributed adaptive algorithms are proposed to address the problem of estimation in distributed networks. We extend recent work by relying on static and adaptive diffusion strategies. The resulting adaptive networks are robust to node and link failures an ...
Nowadays, networked computers are present in most aspects of everyday life. Moreover, essential parts of society come to depend on distributed systems formed of networked computers, thus making such systems secure and fault tolerant is a top priority. If t ...
Distributed computing is reshaping the way people think about and do daily life activities. On-line ticket reservation, electronic commerce, and telebanking are examples of services that would be hardly imaginable without distributed computing. Nevertheles ...

Atomic broadcast primitives are often proposed as a mechanism to allow fault-tolerant cooperation between sites in a distributed system. Unfortunately, the delay incurred before a message can be delivered makes it difficult to implement high performance, s ...
