The use of good random numbers is essential to the integrity of many mission-critical systems. However, when such systems are replicated for Byzantine fault tolerance, a serious i...
Many existing clusters use inexpensive Gigabit Ethernet and often have multiple interfaces cards to improve bandwidth and enhance fault tolerance. We investigate the use of Concurr...

In this paper we present an approach to increase the fault tolerance in FlexRay networks by introducing backup nodes to replace defect ECUs (Electronic Control Units). In order to ...
Web services have been widely employed to allow interoperability among applications and/or technologies. However, the standard technologies and protocols which provide the foundat...
New application scenarios, such as Internet-scale computations, nomadic networks and mobile systems, require decentralized, scalable and open infrastructures. The peerto-peer (P2P...
