This paper provides description and analysis of a new clock synchronization algorithm for synchronous and partially synchronous systems with unknown upper and lower bounds on delay...
The vulnerability of computer nodes due to component failures is a critical issue for cluster-based file systems. This paper studies the development and deployment of mirroring in...
—Preventive maintenance of operational software systems, a novel technique for software fault tolerance, is used specifically to counteract the phenomenon of software “aging.â€...
Current NASA plans call for extended year-long, multikilometer treks for the 2003 and 2005 Mars missions. A much greater amount of rover autonomy is required compared to the recen...
