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.

String Matching: Communication, Circuits, and Learning

Mika Tapani Göös

String matching is the problem of deciding whether a given n-bit string contains a given k-bit pattern. We study the complexity of this problem in three settings. - Communication complexity. For small k, we provide near-optimal upper and lower bounds on th ...

Threshold Logical Clocks for Asynchronous Distributed Coordination and Consensus

Bryan Alexander Ford

Consensus protocols for asynchronous networks are usually complex and inefficient, leading practical systems to rely on synchronous protocols. This paper attempts to simplify asynchronous consensus by building atop a novel threshold logical clock abstracti ...

Adventures in Monotone Complexity and TFNP

Mika Tapani Göös, Dmitrii Sokolov

Separations: We introduce a monotone variant of Xor-Sat and show it has exponential monotone circuit complexity. Since Xor-Sat is in NC^2, this improves qualitatively on the monotone vs. non-monotone separation of Tardos (1988). We also show that monotone ...

Distributed Rate Allocation in Switch-Based Multiparty Videoconferencing System

Pascal Frossard, Sergio Mena, Stefano D'Aronco

Multiparty videoconferences, or more generally multiparty video calls, are gaining a lot of popularity as they offer a rich communication experience. These applications have, however, large requirements in terms of both network and computational resources ...

Beyond One Third Byzantine Failures

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Cheng Wang

The Byzantine agreement problem requires a set of

n

processes to agree on a value sent by a transmitter, despite a subset of

b

processes behaving in an arbitrary, i.e. Byzantine, manner and sending corrupted messages to all processes in the system. It ...

Abstractions for Solving Consensus and Related Problems with Byzantine Faults

Zarko Milosevic

We become increasingly dependent on online services; therefore, their availability and correct behavior become increasingly important. Software replication is a popular technique for ensuring that computer systems continue to provide a correct service even ...

Scalable and Secure Polling in Dynamic Distributed Networks

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Hamza Harkous, Florian Huc

We consider the problem of securely conducting a poll in synchronous dynamic networks equipped with a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). Whereas previous distributed solutions had a communication cost of O(n^2) in an n nodes system, we present SPP (Secure an ...

Round-Based Consensus Algorithms, Predicate Implementations and Quantitative Analysis

Fatemeh Borran

Fault-tolerant computing is the art and science of building computer systems that continue to operate normally in the presence of faults. The fault tolerance field covers a wide spectrum of research area ranging from computer hardware to computer software. ...

On the Reduction of Atomic Broadcast to Consensus with Byzantine Faults

André Schiper, Martin Hutle, Zarko Milosevic

We investigate the reduction of atomic broadcast to consensus in systems with Byzantine faults. Among the several definitions of Byzantine consensus that differ only by their validity property, we identify those equivalent to atomic broadcast. Finally, we ...
