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.

Planetary-Scale Byzantine Fault Tolerance

Matteo Monti

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 ...

A modular functional framework for the design and evaluation of multi-robot navigation

Alcherio Martinoli, Cyrill Silvan Baumann

In this work, we address the design of tightly integrated control, estimation, and allocation algorithms allowing a group of robots to move collectively. For doing so, we leverage a modular framework that allows us to define precisely the needed functional ...

Dynamic Byzantine Reliable Broadcast

Rachid Guerraoui, Jovan Komatovic, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Andrei Tonkikh

Reliable broadcast is a communication primitive guaranteeing, intuitively, that all processes in a distributed system deliver the same set of messages. The reason why this primitive is appealing is twofold: (i) we can implement it deterministically in a co ...

Efficient Protocols for Enforcing Causal Consistency in Geo-Replicated Key-Value Data Stores

Kristina Spirovska

Modern large-scale data platforms manage colossal amount of data, generated by the ever-increasing number of concurrent users. Geo-replicated and sharded key-value data stores play a central role when building such platforms. As the strongest consistency m ...

Fast General Distributed Transactions with Opacity

Aleksandar Dragojevic, Stanko Novakovic, Georgios Chatzopoulos

Transactions can simplify distributed applications by hiding data distribution, concurrency, and failures from the application developer. Ideally the developer would see the abstraction of a single large machine that runs transactions sequentially and neve ...

The Complexity of Reliable and Secure Distributed Transactions

Junxiong Wang

The use of transactions in distributed systems dates back to the 70's. The last decade has also seen the proliferation of transactional systems. In the existing transactional systems, many protocols employ a centralized approach in executing a distributed ...

Sparsified SGD with Memory

Martin Jaggi, Sebastian Urban Stich, Jean-Baptiste Francis Marie Juliette Cordonnier

Huge scale machine learning problems are nowadays tackled by distributed optimization algorithms, i.e. algorithms that leverage the compute power of many devices for training. The communication overhead is a key bottleneck that hinders perfect scalability. ...

Monitoring distributed fragmented skylines

Odysseas Papapetrou

Distributed skyline computation is important for a wide range of domains, from distributed and web-based systems to ISP-network monitoring and distributed databases. The problem is particularly challenging in dynamic distributed settings, where the goal is ...

Scrub: Online TroubleShooting for Large Mission-Critical Applications

Willy Zwaenepoel

Scrub is a troubleshooting tool for distributed applications that operate under strict SLOs common in production environments. It allows users to formulate queries on events occurring during execution in order to assess the correctness of the application’s ...

A Scalable and Secure System Architecture for Smart Buildings

Georgios Lilis

Recent years has seen profound changes in building technologies both in Europe and worldwide. With the emergence of Smart Grid and Smart City concepts, the Smart Building has attracted considerable attention and rapid development. The introduction of novel ...
