Structured peer-to-peer hash tables provide decentralization, self-organization, failure-resilience, and good worst-case lookup performance for applications, but suffer from high ...
1 Data distribution and replication in distributed systems require special purpose middleware tools for accessing replicated data. Data Grids, special forms of a systems distribute...
This paper suggests that a distributed system should support two communication paradigms: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) and group commumcation. The former is used for point-to-point...

: Weak-consistency replication protocols can be used to build wide-area services that are scalable, fault-tolerant, and useful for mobile computer systems. We have evaluated the ti...
— Scientific applications often perform complex computational analyses that consume and produce large data sets. We are concerned with data placement policies that distribute dat...
