Distributed computing is reshaping the way people think about and do daily life activities. On-line ticket reservation, electronic commerce, and telebanking are examples of services that would be hardly imaginable without distributed computing. Nevertheles ...
An important standardisation effort is in progress within the Object Management Group (OMG) regarding domain computing facilities and common domain objects. In this paper, we investigate the very idea of common objects within the Reference Model for Open D ...
On Transaction Liveness in Replicated Databases F.Pedone and R.Guerraoui This paper makes a first attempt to give a precise characterisation of liveness in replicated database systems. We introduce the notion of liveness degrees, which express the expectat ...
Two important models for building fault-tolerant applications have been independently proposed in the literature, the {\em transaction} model (developed within the context of database applications) and the {\em virtual synchrony} model (proposed initially ...
This position paper discusses the issues in design and development of a transaction support for Ada 95. Transactions and other fault tolerance mechanisms are reviewed, and their applicability in a concurrent programming language is analyzed. Possible ways ...
The V kernel supports an abstraction of processes, with operations for interprocess communication, process management, and memory management. This abstraction is used as a software base for constructing distributed systems. As a distributed kernel, the V k ...
Database replication protocols have historically been built on top of distributed database systems, and have consequently been designed and implemented using distributed transactional mechanisms, such as atomic commitment. We present the database state mac ...
