Distributed System design is a highly complicated and non-trivial task. The problem is characterised by the need to design multi-threaded, multi-processor, and multimedia systems....
This paper describes PRISM, a distributed sharedmemory architecture that relies on a tightly integrated hardware and operating system design for scalable and reliable performance....
Replication of objects, processes and components is essential for building reliable distributed systems. However, maintaining replica consistency in the presence of nondeterminism...

In this paper, we discuss requirements for integrating dynamic performance information from the Network Weather Service (NWS) into the Grid Information Service infrastructure (GIS...
The integration of system and SW functions for efciency, performance and especially dependability is of interest from a research and system design perspective. In this paper, we p...
