Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Actors that Unify Threads and Events

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

In practice, concurrent programming systems based on message passing are often instantiations of the actor model. A popular implementation of this form of concurrency is the Erlang programming language. Erlang supports massively concurrent systems such as ...

The Time-Complexity of Local Decision in Distributed Agreement

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon, Partha Dutta

Agreement is at the heart of distributed computing. In its simple form, it requires a set of processes to decide on a common value out of the values they propose. The time-complexity of distributed agreement problems is generally measured in terms of the n ...

Event-Based Programming without Inversion of Control

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

The actor computation model is especially suited for concurrent and distributed computations. Actors are basically concurrent processes which communicate through asynchronous message passing. When combined with pattern matching for messages, actor-based pr ...

Requalification de l'arrière-gare Cornavin. Densification du quartier des Grottes (Genève, GE)

Juan-José Madrinan, Nicolas Moser

Ce projet de master traite des espaces contemporains de la ville. Il s'agit de lieux aujourd'hui dévalorisés, qui possèdent déjà une identité et dans lesquels peuvent s'insérer de nouvelles dynamiques urbaines. La relation entre les deux éléments constitut ...

Can a Helmholtz solver run on a cluster?

Marc Anthony David Habisreutinger, Emmanuel Leriche, Vincent Keller

Our vectorized Helmholtz solver runs at 85% efficiency on a NEC SX-5. The most time-consuming parts have been ported on SMP, NUMA, and cluster architectures. It is shown that an OpenMP version can deliver similar performance when running it on a 16 process ...

Language Support for Fast and Reliable Message Based Communication in Singularity OS

James Richard Larus

Message-based communication offers potential benefits of providing stronger specification and cleaner separation between components. Compared with shared-memory interactions, message passing has the potential disadvantages of being more expensive (no direc ...

FRODO: A FRamework for Open/Distributed constraint Optimization

Adrian Petcu

We present a framework for distributed combinatorial optimization. The framework is implemented in Java, and simulates a multiagent environment in a single Java virtual machine. Each agent in the environment is executed asynchronously in a separate executi ...

The Alpha of Indulgent Consensus

Rachid Guerraoui

This paper presents a simple framework unifying a family of consensus algorithms that can tolerate process crash failures and asynchronous periods of the network, also called indulgent consensus algorithms. Key to the framework is a new abstraction we intr ...

A Topological Treatment of Early-Deciding Set-Agreement

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon

This paper considers the k-set-agreement problem in a synchronous message passing distributed system where up to t processes can fail by crashing. We determine the number of communication rounds needed for all correct processes to reach a decision in a giv ...

How Fast can a Distributed Atomic Read be?

Rachid Guerraoui, Marko Vukolic, Ron Levy, Partha Dutta

We study efficient and robust implementations of an atomic read-write data structure over an asynchronous distributed message-passing system made of reader and writer processes, as well as failure prone server processes implementing the data structure. We ...
