Introduction to Distributed Self-Stabilizing Algorithms
This book aims at being a comprehensive and pedagogical introduction to the concept of self-stabilization, introduced by Edsger Wybe Dijkstra in 1973. Self-stabilization characterizes the ability of a distributed algorithm to converge within finite time to a configuration from which its behavior is correct (i.e., satisfies a given specification), regardless the arbitrary initial configuration of the system. This arbitrary initial configuration may be the result of the occurrence of a finite number of transient faults. Hence, self-stabilization is actually considered as a versatile non-masking fault tolerance approach, since it recovers from the effect of any finite number of such faults in a...
Self-Stabilizing Systems
The refereed proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Self-Stabilizing Systems, SSS 2003, held in San Francisco, CA, USA, in June 2003. The 15 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. The papers address self-stabilization issues for various types of systems and software including communication protocols, sensor networks, biological systems, and directed networks; several new algorithms are presented.
Self-Stabilizing Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Self-Stabilizing Systems, SSS 2005, held in Barcelona, Spain, in October 2005. The 15 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. The papers address classical topics of self-stabilization, prevailing extensions to the field, such as snap-stabilization, code stabilization, self-stabilization with either dynamic, faulty or Byzantine components, or deal with applications of self-stabilization, either related to operating systems, security, or mobile and ad hoc networks.
Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2007, held in Paris, France, November 14-16, 2007. The 27 regular papers presented together with the extended abstracts of three invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 64 submissions. The papers address all aspects of self-stabilization, safety and security, recovery oriented systems and programming.
High Performance Computing – HiPC 2005
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on High-Performance Computing, HiPC 2005, held in Goa, India in December 2005. The 50 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 362 submissions. After the keynote section and the presentation of the 2 awarded best contributions the papers are organized in topical sections on algorithms, applications, architecture, systems software, communication networks, and systems and networks.
Principles of Distributed Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems, OPODIS 2007, held in Guadeloupe, French West Indies, in December 2007. The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 106 submissions. The papers address all current issues in theory, specification, design and implementation of distributed and embedded systems. A broad range of topics are addressed.
Nature, Environment and Culture in East Asia
Since in the current global environmental and climate crisis East Asia will play a major role in negotiating solutions, it is vital to understand East Asian cultural variations in approaching and solving environmental challenges in the past, present, and future. The interdisciplinary volume Nature, Environment and Culture in East Asia. The Challenge of Climate Change, edited by Carmen Meinert, explores how cultural patterns and ideas have shaped a specific understanding of nature, how local and regional cultures develop(ed) coping strategies to adapt to environmental and climatic changes in the past and in the present and how various institutions and representatives might introduce their ideas and agendas in future environmental and climate policies on national levels and in international negotiating systems.
How Change Happens
Human society is full of would-be 'change agents', a restless mix of campaigners, lobbyists and officials, both individuals and organizations, set on transforming the world. They want to improve public services, reform laws and regulations, guarantee human rights, get a fairer deal for those on the sharp end, and achieve greater recognition for any number of issues or simply be treated with respect. It is striking then, that universities have no Department of Change Studies, to which social activists can turn for advice and inspiration. Instead, scholarly discussions of change are fragmented with few conversations crossing disciplinary boundaries, or making it onto the radars of those active...
High Performance Computing - HiPC'99
These are the proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on High Performance Computing (HiPC’99) held December 17-20 in Calcutta, India. The meeting serves as a forum for presenting current work by researchers from around the world as well as highlighting activities in Asia in the high performance computing area. The meeting emphasizes both the design and the analysis of high performance computing systems and their scientific, engineering, and commercial applications. Topics covered in the meeting series include: Parallel Algorithms Scientific Computation Parallel Architectures Visualization Parallel Languages & Compilers Network and Cluster Based Computing Distributed Systems Signa...
