Existing approaches to debugging distributed systems involve a cycle of passive observation followed by computation replaying. We propose predicate control as an active approach t...
Abstract--Malicious and misconfigured nodes can inject incorrect state into a distributed system, which can then be propagated system-wide as a result of normal network operation. ...

Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) have been used in a variety of applications, but most DHTs so far have opted to solve lookups with multiple hops, which sacrifices performance in o...
Many peer-assisted content-distribution systems reward a peer based on the amount of data that this peer serves to others. However, validating that a peer did so is, to our knowled...
