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.

Distributed Agreement with Optimal Communication Complexity

Seth Gilbert

We consider the problem of fault-tolerant agreement in a crash-prone synchronous system. We present a new randomized consensus algorithm that achieves optimal communication efficiency, using only O(n) bits of communication, and terminates in (almost optima ...

Securing Every Bit: Authenticated Broadcast in Radio Networks

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh, Zarko Milosevic

This paper studies non-cryptographic authenticated broad- cast in radio networks subject to malicious failures. We in- troduce two protocols that address this problem. The first, NeighborWatchRB, makes use of a novel strategy in which honest devices monito ...

Of Choices, Failures and Asynchrony: The Many Faces of Set Agreement

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh

Set agreement is a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which processes collectively choose a small subset of values from a larger set of proposals. The impossibility of fault-tolerant set agreement in asynchronous networks is one of the seminal ...

Interference-Resilient Information Exchange

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert

This paper presents an efficient protocol for reliably exchanging information in a single-hop, multi-channel radio network subject to unpredictable interference. We model the interference by an adversary that can simultaneously disrupt up to t of the C ava ...

The Wireless Synchronization Problem

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert

In this paper, we study the wireless synchronization prob- lem which requires devices activated at different times on a congested single-hop radio network to synchronize their round numbering. We assume a collection of n synchronous devices with access to ...

Self-Stabilizing Robot Formations over Unreliable Networks

Seth Gilbert

We describe how a set of mobile robots can arrange themselves on any specified curve on the plane in the presence of dynamic changes both in the underlying ad hoc network and in the set of participating robots. Our strategy is for the mobile robots to impl ...

On the Complexity of Asynchronous Gossip

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert

In this paper, we study the complexity of gossip in an asynchronous, message-passing fault-prone distributed system. In short, we show that an adaptive adversary can significantly hamper the spreading of a rumor, while an oblivious adversary cannot. In the ...

Reconfigurable Distributed Storage for Dynamic Networks

Vincent Gramoli, Seth Gilbert

This paper presents a new algorithm for implementing a reconfigurable distributed shared memory in an asynchronous dynamic network. The algorithm guarantees atomic consistency (linearizability) in all executions in the presence of arbitrary crash failures ...

Virtual Infrastructure for Collision-Prone Wireless Networks

Seth Gilbert

Wireless ad hoc networks pose several significant challenges: devices are unreliable; deployments are unpredictable; and communication is erratic. One proposed solution is Virtual Infrastructure, an abstraction in which unpredictable and unreliable devices ...

How to solve consensus in the smallest window of synchrony

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh

This paper addresses the following question: what is the minimum-sized synchronous window needed to solve consensus in an otherwise asynchronous system? In answer to this question, we present the first optimally-resilient algorithm ASAP that solves consens ...
