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 ...
Due to their nature, distributed systems are vulnerable to failures of some of their parts. Conversely, distribution also provides a way to increase the fault tolerance of the overall system. However, achieving fault tolerance is not a simple problem and r ...
In this paper we present the foundations of Rapids ("Replicated Ada Partitions In Distributed Systems"), an implementaion of the PCS supporting the transparent replication of partitions in distributed Ada 95 using semi-active replication. The inherently no ...
This paper presents the semi-passive replication technique -- a variant of passive replication -- that can be implemented in the asynchronous system model without requiring agreement on a primary (usually done using a membership service). Passive replicati ...
This paper presents the semi-passive replication technique -- a variant of passive replication -- that can be implemented in the asynchronous system model without requiring a membership service to agree on a primary. Passive replication is a popular replic ...
Atomic broadcast primitives are often proposed as a mechanism to allow fault-tolerant cooperation between sites in a distributed system. Unfortunately, the delay incurred before a message can be delivered makes it difficult to implement high performance, s ...
Contention-Aware Metrics for Distributed Algorithms: Comparison of Atomic Broadcast Algorithms Peter Urban, Xavier Defago and Andre Schiper Resource contention is widely recognized as having a major impact on the performance of distributed algorithms. Neve ...
A distributed algorithm comprises a collection of sequential-code entities, which are spread over different computers connected to a network. The process of designing a distributed algorithm is influenced by the assumptions we make on the computational env ...
This paper presents the foundations of Rapids ("Replicated Ada Partitions In Distributed Systems"), an implementation of the Distributed Systems Annex E incorporating the transparent replication of partitions in distributed Ada 95 applications. Rapids is a ...
Replication is a key mechanism for developing fault-tolerant and highly available applications. In this paper, we present a replication framework for replicating CORBA objects, that combines the active and passive replication techniques. We show how we hav ...
