A critical challenge to creating effective open multi-agent systems is allowing them to operate effectively in the face of potential failures. In this paper we present an experimen...
A challenging issue in today's server systems is to transparently deal with failures and application-imposed requirements for continuous operation. In this paper we address t...
—Commercial backbone networks must continue to operate even when links and routers fail. Routing schemes such as OSPF, IS-IS, and MPLS reroute traffic, but they cannot guarantee...
— In this paper, we study the survivability problem in hierarchical wireless access networks with dual-homed end users, who are connected to two base stations (BSs), a primary BS...
Fault-tolerance is fundamental to the further development of mobile agent applications. In the context of mobile agents, fault-tolerance prevents a partial or complete loss of the...
