Atum: Scalable Group Communication Using Volatile Groups

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Matej Pavlovic

This paper presents Atum, a group communication middleware for a large, dynamic, and hostile environment. At the heart of Atum lies the novel concept of volatile groups: small, dynamic groups of nodes, each executing a state machine replication protocol, o ...

Systemic Risk and User-Level Performance in Private P2P Communities

Rameez Rahman

Many peer-to-peer communities, including private BitTorrent communities that serve hundreds of thousands of users, utilize credit-based or sharing ratio enforcement schemes to incentivize their members to contribute. In this paper, we analyze the performan ...

Method of providing scalable video coding (svc) video content with added media content

Pascal Frossard, Jakov Cakareski

A method of providing SVC video content with added media content, comprising the steps of: receiving an original video content transmitted from a remote site in a bit stream and including original video encoding parameters decoding said original video enco ...

The Bussard-Bagga and Other Distance-Bounding Protocols under Attacks

Serge Vaudenay, Aikaterini Mitrokotsa, Asli Bay, Iosif-Daniel Spulber

The communication between an honest prover and an honest verifier can be intercepted by a malicious man-in-the-middle (MiM), without the legitimate interlocutors noticing the intrusion. The attacker can simply relay messages from one party to another, even ...

S-Paxos: Offloading the Leader for High Throughput State Machine Replication

André Schiper, Zarko Milosevic, Nuno Filipe de Sousa Santos, Martin Biely

Implementations of state machine replication are prevalently using variants of Paxos or other leader-based protocols. Typically these protocols are also leader-centric, in the sense that the leader performs more work than the non-leader replicas. Such prot ...

Signaling and Reciprocity

Wojciech Galuba

Complex networks exist for a number of purposes. The neural, metabolic and food networks ensure our survival, while the social, economic, transportation and communication networks allow us to prosper. Independently of the purposes and particularities of th ...

Effective Usage of Computational Trust Models in Rational Environments

Karl Aberer, Hung Le Vu

Computational reputation-based trust models using statistical learning have been intensively studied for distributed systems where peers behave maliciously. However practical applications of such models in environments with both malicious and rational beha ...

Fast download but eternal seeding: The reward and punishment of Sharing Ratio Enforcement

Rameez Rahman

Many private BitTorrent communities employ Sharing Ratio Enforcement (SRE) schemes to incentivize users to contribute their upload resources. It has been demonstrated that communities that use SRE are greatly oversupplied, i.e., they have much higher seede ...

Subjective quality assessment of scalable video coding: a survey

Touradj Ebrahimi, Francesca De Simone, Jong Seok Lee

Scalable video coding is a promising solution for efficient video content distribution to users having heterogeneous network and terminal capabilities. Thanks to its inherent multidimensional adaptability, a scalable bit stream can be used to simultaneousl ...
