Scientific applications often involve computation intensive workflows and may generate large amount of derived data. In this paper we consider a life cycle, which starts when the ...
In this paper, we study replication techniques for scaling and continuous operation for a dynamic content server. Our focus is on supporting transparent and fast reconfiguration ...
With the Distributed File System Replication component, DFS-R, as the central theme, we present selected protocol problems and validation methods encountered during design and deve...
Determinism is mandatory for replicating distributed objects with strict consistency guarantees. Multithreaded execution of method invocations is a source of nondeterminism, but h...
The need for sharing is well known in a large number of distributed collaborative applications. These applications are difficult to develop for wide area (possibly mobile) networ...
