Equivalences and calculi for formal verification of cryptographic protocols

Johannes Borgström

Security protocols are essential to the proper functioning of any distributed system running over an insecure network but often have flaws that can be exploited even without breaking the cryptography. Formal cryptography, the assumption that the cryptograp ...

On the Complexity of Asynchronous Gossip

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert

In this paper, we study the complexity of gossip in an asynchronous, message-passing fault-prone distributed system. In short, we show that an adaptive adversary can significantly hamper the spreading of a rumor, while an oblivious adversary cannot. In the ...

On the Message Complexity of Indulgent Consensus

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert

Many recommend planning for the worst and hoping for the best. In this paper we devise efficient indulgent consensus algorithms that can tolerate crash failures and arbitrarily long periods of asynchrony, and yet perform (asymptotically) optimally in well- ...

Community-Aware Event Dissemination

Rachid Guerraoui, Oana Anca Jurca, Patrick Eugster

This paper presents a distributed algorithm to disseminate events in a publish/subscribe system, where processes publish events of certain topics, organized in a hierarchy, and expect events of topics they subscribed to. Every topic defines a dynamic notio ...

Type-based event dissemination

Sébastien Bähni

With the explosion of broadband Internet connections in the late 80s, new types of applications, called distributed applications, came to light. These applications typically seek to provide a user with remote services that appear to that user as if they we ...

A Mobile Game to Explore the Use of Location Awareness on Collaboration

Pierre Dillenbourg, Nicolas Nova

This contribution presents an ongoing study focused on how location awareness feature modifies collaboration in the context of mobile computing. First it describes the environment we designed and implemented in the form of a mobile game called CatchBob!. T ...

GosSkip: a Gossip-based Structured Overlay Network for Efficient Content-based Filtering

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Sidath Handurukande

It is appealing to implement publish/subscribe systems in a peer to peer (P2P) manner to circumvent the scalability issues of broker-based (semi-decentralized) systems and simplify the deployment. While existing P2P generic infrastructures provide a scalab ...

Data-Aware Multicast

Rachid Guerraoui, Patrick Eugster

This paper presents a multicast algorithm for peer-to-peer dissemination of events in a distributed topic-based publish-subscribe system, where processes publish events of certain topics, organized in a hierarchy, and expect events of topics they subscribe ...

An Efficient Universal Construction for Message-Passing Systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon, Partha Dutta

A universal construction is an algorithm that transforms any object with a sequential specification into a wait-free and linearizable implementation of that object. This paper presents a novel universal construction algorithm for a message-passing system w ...

Synchronous active objects introduce CSP's primitives in Java

Claude Petitpierre

This paper presents a proposal of a language, based on synchronous active objects that introduces the CSP primitives into Java. The proposal does not use channels to realise the inter-process communications, but is shown to offer the same expressive power ...
