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.

Opacity: A Correctness Condition for Transactional Memory

Rachid Guerraoui, Michal Kapalka

Transactional memory is perceived as an appealing alternative to critical sections for general purpose concurrent programming. Despite the large amount of recent work on transactional memory implementations, however, its actual specification has never been ...

Efficient Distributed Subtyping Tests

Rachid Guerraoui, João Barreto, Patrick Eugster

Subtyping tests are essential in typed publish/subscribe infrastructures, especially when the underlying programming language supports subtype conformance, as in Java or C#. These tests are particularly challenging when the publish/subscribe infrastructure ...

The Weakest Failure Detectors to Boost Obstruction-Freedom

Rachid Guerraoui, Michal Kapalka

It is considered good practice in concurrent computing to devise shared object implementations that ensure a minimal obstruction-free progress property and delegate the task of boosting liveness to independent generic oracles called contention managers. Th ...

Pervasive Computing with Frugal Objects

Rachid Guerraoui, Maxime Monod, Benoît Garbinato, Jesper Honig Spring

This paper presents a computing model for resource-limited mobile devices that might be ubiquitously deployed in private and business environments. The model integrates a strongly-typed event-based communication paradigm with abstractions for frugal contro ...

Reflexes: Abstractions for Highly Responsive Systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Jesper Honig Spring

Commercial Java virtual machines are designed to maximize the performance of applications at the expense of predictability. High throughput garbage collection algorithms, for example, can introduce pauses of 100 milliseconds or more. We are interested in s ...

Towards Fair Event Dissemination

Rachid Guerraoui, Maxime Monod

Event dissemination in large scale dynamic systems is typically claimed to be best achieved using decentralized peer-to-peer architectures. The rationale is to have every participant in the system act both as a client (information consumer) and as a server ...

The Weight-Watcher Service and its Lightweight Implementation

Rachid Guerraoui, Maxime Monod, Benoît Garbinato, Jesper Honig Spring, Alexei Kounine

This paper presents the Weight-Watcher service. This service aims at providing resource consumption measurements and estimations for software executing on resource constrained devices. By using the Weight-Watcher, software components can continuously adapt ...

On The Weakest Failure Detector Ever

Rachid Guerraoui

Many problems in distributed computing are impossible when no information about process failures is available. So what is the minimal yet non-trivial failure information? In other words, what is the minimal information about failures needed to circumvent a ...

The Perfectly-Synchronized Round-based Model of Distributed Computing

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon

The perfectly-synchronized round-based model provides the powerful abstraction of crash-stop failures with atomic and synchronous message delivery. This abstraction makes distributed programming very easy.We describe a technique to automatically transform ...
