We present ConfErr, a tool for testing and quantifying the resilience of software systems to human-induced configuration errors. ConfErr uses human error models rooted in psychology and linguistics to generate realistic configuration mistakes; it then inje ...
Bias-resistant public randomness is a critical component in many (distributed) protocols. Existing solutions do not scale to hundreds or thousands of participants, as is needed in many decentralized systems. We propose two large-scale distributed protocols ...
This paper describes the development and application of a new unique tool to support designers to optimise the sustainability of urban neighbourhoods (SUNtool). In this the paper introduces (i) the software architecture, (ii) the integrated solver and rela ...
The call for papers for this workshop starts with the observation that software still has bugs, despite considerable investment and improvement in software development process. Software has always had bugs, and as far as I can tell, it will always have bug ...
For several decades, online transaction processing (OLTP) has been one of the main server applications that drives innovations in the data management ecosystem, and in turn the database and computer architecture communities. Recent hardware trends oblige s ...

It is noticeable that our society is increasingly relying on computer systems. Nowadays, computer networks can be found at places where it would have been unthinkable a few decades ago, supporting in some cases critical applications on which human lives ma ...
Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) or mobile phones applications are not anymore restricted to multimedia or wireless communications, but have been extended to handle Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) functionalities. The new generation of portable ...
