How Fast Can a Very Robust Read Be?

Rachid Guerraoui, Marko Vukolic

This paper studies the time complexity of reading unauthenticated data from a distributed storage made of a set of failure-prone base objects. More specifically, we consider the abstraction of a robust read/write storage that provides wait-free access to u ...

Failure Location in Transparent Optical Networks: The Asymmetry Between False and Missing Alarms

Patrick Thiran, Xuan Hung Nguyen

Failure location in transparent optical networks is difficult because of the large amount of alarms that a failure can trigger and because of corrupted alarms. One problem that network operators often face is how to set the thresholds in monitoring devices ...

Range queries in trie-structured overlays

Karl Aberer, Manfred Hauswirth, Anwitaman Datta, Roman Schmidt, Renault John Lecoultre

Among the open problems in P2P systems, support for non-trivial search predicates, standardized query languages, distributed query processing, query load balancing, and quality of query results have been identified as some of the most relevant issues. This ...

The Inherent Price of Indulgence

Rachid Guerraoui, Partha Dutta

This paper presents a tight lower bound on the time complexity of indulgent consensus algorithms, i.e., consensus algorithms that use unreliable failure detectors. We state and prove our tight lower bound in the unifying framework of round-by-round fault d ...

New Attacks against Reduced-Round Versions of IDEA

Pascal Junod

In this paper, we describe a sequence of simple, yet e cient chosen-plaintext (or chosen-ciphertext) attacks against reduced-round versions of IDEA (with 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, and 4 rounds) which compare favourably with the best known attacks: some of them decre ...

Lucky Read/Write Access to Robust Atomic Storage

Rachid Guerraoui, Marko Vukolic, Ron Levy

This paper establishes tight bounds on the best-case time-complexity of distributed atomic read/write storage implementations that tolerate worst-case conditions. We study asynchronous robust implementations where a writer and a set of reader processes (cl ...

Robust Emulations of Shared Memory in a Crash-Recovery Model

Rachid Guerraoui, Ron Levy

A shared memory abstraction can be robustly emulated over an asynchronous message passing system where any process can fail by crashing and possibly recover (crash-recovery model), by having (a) the processes exchange messages to synchronize their read and ...

Lower Bounds on Generic Broadcast Algorithms

André Schiper, Fernando Pedone

This paper establishes tight lower bounds on the time complexity of algorithms solving the generic broadcast problem. Generic broadcast assumes a symmetric, non-reflexive conflict relation on the set of messages, and requires ordered delivery only for conf ...

Solving the fixed rank convex quadratic maximization in binary variables by a parallel zonotope construction algorithm

Thomas Liebling, Jean-Albert Ferrez

We address the weighted max-cut problem, or equivalently the problem of maximizing a quadratic form in n binary variables. If the underlying (symmetric) matrix is positive semidefinite of fixed rank d, then the problem can be reduced to searching the extre ...
