A Federated Array of Bricks is a scalable distributed storage system composed from inexpensive storage bricks. It achieves high reliability with low cost by using erasure coding a...
Abstract-- Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are large collections of resource limited nodes, densely deployed over a landscape. They gather and disseminate local data using multihop...
Wireless sensor networks face acute security concerns in applications such as battlefield monitoring. A central point of failure in a sensor network is the base station, which act...
We describe an approach to quantitatively evaluating human-assisted failure-recovery tools and processes in the environment of modern Internet- and enterprise-class server systems...
