Planetary-Scale Byzantine Fault Tolerance

The scale and pervasiveness of the Internet make it a pillar of planetary communication, industry and economy, as well as a fundamental medium for public discourse and democratic engagement. In stark contrast with the Internet's decentralized infrastructur ...

uKharon: A Membership Service for Microsecond Applications

Rachid Guerraoui, Antoine Murat, Javier Picorel Obando, Athanasios Xygkis

Modern data center fabrics open the possibility of microsecond distributed applications, such as data stores and message queues. A challenging aspect of their development is to ensure that, besides being fast in the common case, these applications react fa ...

Byzantine Fault-Tolerance in Federated Local SGD Under 2f-Redundancy

Nirupam Gupta

In this article, we study the problem of Byzantine fault-tolerance in a federated optimization setting, where there is a group of agents communicating with a centralized coordinator. We allow up to

Divide-and-conquer one-step simulator for the generation of synthetic households

Michel Bierlaire, Marija Kukic

This paper presents a novel simulation approach for generating synthetic households, addressing several literature gaps from the methodological viewpoint. The generation of hierarchical datasets such as complete households is challenging since it must guar ...

How ornithopters can perch autonomously on a branch

Raphael Zufferey

Flapping wings produce lift and thrust in bio-inspired aerial robots, leading to quiet, safe and efficient flight. However, to extend their application scope, these robots must perch and land, a feat widely demonstrated by birds. Despite recent progress, f ...

NrOS: Effective Replication and Sharing in an Operating System

Sanidhya Kashyap, Ankit Bhardwaj

Writing a correct operating system kernel is notoriously hard. Kernel code requires manual memory management and type-unsafe code and must efficiently handle complex, asynchronous events. In addition, increasing CPU core counts further complicate kernel de ...

Leaderless Consensus

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli, Mihail Igor Zablotchi, Karolos Antoniadis, Antoine Philippe Matthieu Desjardins

Classical synchronous consensus algorithms are leaderless: processes exchange their proposals, retain the maximum value and decide when they see the same choice across a couple of rounds. Indulgent consensus algorithms are more robust in that they only req ...

Asynchronous distributed coordination and consensus with threshold logical clocks

Bryan Alexander Ford

Consensus protocols for asynchronous networks are usually complex and inefficient, leading practical systems to rely on synchronous protocols. The invention proposes an approach to simplify asynchronous consensus by building it atop a novel threshold logic ...

Microsecond Consensus for Microsecond Applications

Rachid Guerraoui, Mihail Igor Zablotchi, Athanasios Xygkis, Naama Ben David

We consider the problem of making apps fault-tolerant through replication, when apps operate at the microsecond scale, as in finance, embedded computing, and microservices apps. These apps need a replication scheme that also operates at the microsecond sca ...

The Hidden Complexity of Distributed Systems

Karolos Antoniadis

The field of distributed computing has a long history, of more than fifty years. During that time, our understanding of the field has improved immensely and a certain body of folklore beliefs has formed. However, such folklore beliefs are not necessarily a ...
