Rectifying orphan components using group-failover in distributed real-time and embedded systems
Orphan requests are a significant problem for multi-tier distributed systems since they adversely impact system correctness by violating the exactly-once semantics of application...

Cost-effective safety and fault localization using distributed temporal redundancy
Cost pressure is driving vendors of safety-critical systems to integrate previously distributed systems. One natural approach we have previous introduced is On-Demand Redundancy (...

Dark silicon and the end of multicore scaling
Since 2005, processor designers have increased core counts to exploit Moore’s Law scaling, rather than focusing on single-core performance. The failure of Dennard scaling, to wh...

High-density model for server allocation and placement
It is well known that optimal server placement is NP-hard. We present an approximate model for the case when both clients and servers are dense, and propose a simple server alloca...
