Tight Failure Detection Bounds on Atomic Object Implementations

Rachid Guerraoui

This article determines the weakest failure detectors to implement shared atomic objects in a distributed system with crash-prone processes. We first determine the weakest failure detector for the basic register object. We then use that to determine the we ...

TinkerSheets: Using Paper Forms to Control and Visualize Tangible Simulations

Pierre Dillenbourg, Patrick Jermann, Guillaume Zufferey, Aurélien Lucchi

This paper describes TinkerSheets, a paper-based interface to tangible simulations. The proposed interface combines the advantages of form-based input and paper. Form-based input allows to set an arbitrary number of parameters. Using paper as a medium for ...

Concurrency and dynamic protocol update for group communication middleware

Olivier Rütti

The last three decades have seen computers invading our society: computers are now present at work to improve productivity and at home to enlarge the scope of our hobbies and to communicate. Furthermore, computers have been involved in many critical system ...

Transactions in the Jungle

Rachid Guerraoui, Michal Kapalka, Vasu Singh

Transactional memory (TM) has shown potential to simplify the task of writing concurrent programs. However, the semantics of interactions between transactions managed by a TM and non-transactional operations, while widely studied, lacks a clear formal spec ...

Interaction design guidelines on critiquing-based recommender systems

Pearl Pu Faltings, Li Chen

A critiquing-based recommender system acts like an artificial salesperson. It engages users in a conversational dialog where users can provide feedback in the form of critiques to the sample items that were shown to them. The feedback, in turn, enables the ...

Multiversion concurrency control for the generalized search tree

Boi Faltings, Ion Constantinescu, Samuel Spycher

Many read-intensive systems where fast access to data is more important than the rate at which data can change make use of multidimensional index structures, like the generalized search tree (GiST). Although in these systems the indexed data are rarely upd ...

Design and evaluation issues for user-centric online product search

Jiyong Zhang

Nowadays more and more people are looking for products online, and a massive amount of products are being sold through e-commerce systems. It is crucial to develop effective online product search tools to assist users to find their desired products and to ...

User decision improvement and trust building in product recommender systems

Li Chen

As online stores are offering an almost unlimited shelf space, users must increasingly rely on product search and recommender systems to find their most preferred products and decide which item is the truly best one to buy. However, much research work has ...

On the Correctness of Transactional Memory

Rachid Guerraoui, Michal Kapalka

Transactional memory (TM) is perceived as an appealing alternative to critical sections for general purpose concurrent programming. Despite the large amount of recent work on TM implementations, however, very little effort has been devoted to precisely def ...

Reconfigurable Distributed Storage for Dynamic Networks

Vincent Gramoli, Seth Gilbert

This paper presents a new algorithm for implementing a reconfigurable distributed shared memory in an asynchronous dynamic network. The algorithm guarantees atomic consistency (linearizability) in all executions in the presence of arbitrary crash failures ...
