Lookup of services is an important issues in many distributed systems. This paper deals with lookup in service-oriented architectures, such as Web services, P2P systems, GRIDs, or ...
P2P systems are a revival paradigm for information sharing among distributed nodes in the network. Currently, many research projects or practical applications have emerged from th...
We consider the problem of maximizing capacity in a queueing network with flexible servers, where the classes and servers are subject to failure. We assume that the interarrival ...
Formal approaches to the design of interactive systems rely on reasoning about properties of the t a very high level of abstraction. Specifications to support such an approach typi...
Software Fault Tree Analysis (SFTA) provides a structured way to reason about the safety or reliability of a software system. As such, SFTA is widely used in missioncritical appli...
