The history of distributed computing is full of trade-offs between safety and liveness. For instance, one of the most celebrated results in the field, namely the impossibility of consensus in an asynchronous system basically says that we cannot devise an a ...

This thesis presents three economic perspectives to moving forward a global climate agreement for post-2012. The first part develops a grading system for assessing thirteen proposals for post-2012 climate policy. The grades are based on four criteria: envi ...
Motivated by recent developments in the context of adaptation over networks, this work establishes useful results about the limiting global behavior of diffusion and consensus strategies for the solution of distributed optimization problems. It is known th ...
It is notoriously difficult to develop reliable, high-performance distributed systems that run over asynchronous networks. Even if a distributed system is based on a well-understood distributed algorithm, its implementation can contain errors arising from ...
The performance of consensus and atomic broadcast algorithms using failure detectors is often affected by a trade-off between the number of communication steps and the number of messages needed to reach a decision. In this paper, we model the performance o ...
We performed a study to define the key elements of feasible global climate policy scenarios for the post-2012 UNFCCC regime by contacting – through a series of questionnaires – 149 stakeholders involved in climate-change discussions. We applied a Multiple ...
This paper uses a two-country, sticky-price model with non-atomistic wage setters to study the role of collective wage bargaining in the propagation of monetary shocks. I find that the welfare transmissions of a monetary expansion are reinforced by differe ...
In creating Terms of Reference, the Group has to consider the scope of the meaning of long-life pavements. It is suggested that this should not be ‘life’ related but based on the concept that a long-life pavement is one that is heavily trafficked, and is d ...
