Vertical paxos and primary-backup replication
We introduce a class of Paxos algorithms called Vertical Paxos, in which reconfiguration can occur in the middle of reaching agreement on an individual state-machine command. Vert...

On a selfish caching game
In this work we define and study a new model for the caching problem in a heterogeneous wireless network under a flash-crowd scenario. Using non-cooperative game theory, we cast t...

Brief announcement: self-assembly as graph grammar as distributed system
In 2004, Klavins et al. introduced the use of graph grammars to describe--and to program--systems of self-assembly. It turns out that these graph grammars can be embedded in a gra...
