  A causal message logging protocol for mobile nodes in mobile computing systems
Ahn J., Min S., Hwang C. Future Generation Computer Systems 20(4): 663-686, 2004.  Type: Article

Ahn, Min, and Hwang propose a causal message logging protocol, with independent checkpointing, that addresses the constraints of mobile nodes, such as disconnection, limited power, small storage space, and low bandwidth....

  An Optical Bus-Based Distributed Dynamic Barrier Mechanism
Cohen W., Hyde D., Gaede R. IEEE Transactions on Computers 49(12): 1354-1365, 2000.  Type: Article

In parallel programming, the barrier synchronization is a very important construct. It guarantees that all processors are at a particular location in the code before any processor is allowed to continue....

  On k-Set Consensus Problems in Asynchronous Systems
de Prisco R., Malkhi D., Reiter M. IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems 12(1): 7-21, 2001.  Type: Article

Many practical problems in distributed systems that can suffer process failures can be reduced to the consensus problem (that is, the problem of having processes agree on a decision)....

  Replica Determinism and Flexible Scheduling in Hard Real-Time Dependable Systems
Poledna S., Burns A., Wellings A., Barrett P. IEEE Transactions on Computers 49(2): 100-111, 2000.  Type: Article

In a fault-tolerant real-time distributed system based on active replications, the replicated tasks are required to exhibit replica determinism (that is, the replicated tasks must deliver identical outputs in an identical order within ...

  Efficient C++
Bulka D., Mayhew D., Addison-Wesley Longman Publishing Co., Inc., Boston, MA, 2000.  Type: Book (9780201379501)

C++ is regarded as inherently slow and inappropriate for performance-critical applications. The authors refute this conception, demonstrating the language’s potential for producing highly efficient programs. A lot of programm...
