Designers of distributed systems often rely on replicas for increased robustness, scalability, and performance. Replicated server architectures require some technique to select a ...
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) was defined to facilitate automatic configuration of IP addresses and other network parameters to hosts in a network. Efficiency of D...
Wireless sensor networks promise fine-grain monitoring in a wide variety of environments. Many of these environments (e.g., indoor environments or habitats) can be harsh for wire...
When making an engineering design decision, it is often necessary to consider its implications on both system performance and dependability. In this paper, we present a performabi...
