Blockchain and cryptocurrencies technologies and network structures: applications, implications and beyond
Blockchain technology is bringing together concepts and operations from several fields, including computing, communications networks, cryptography, and has broad implications and consequences thus encompassing a wide variety of domains and issues, including Network Science, computer science, economics, law, geography, etc. The aim of the paper is to provide a synthetic sketch of issues raised by the development of Blockchains and Cryptocurrencies, these issues are mainly presented through the link between on one hand the technological aspects, i.e. involved technologies and networks structures, and on the other hand the issues raised from applications to implications. We believe the link is a two-sided one. The goal is that it may contribute facilitating bridges between research areas.
Principles of Distributed Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems, OPODIS 2010, held in Tozeur, Tunisia, in December 2010. The 32 full papers and 4 brief announcements presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 122 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on robots; randomization in distributed algorithms; brief announcements; graph algorithms; fault-tolerance; distributed programming; real-time; shared memory; and concurrency.
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...
Networked Systems
This book constitutes the revised selected papers of the 8th International Conference on Networked Systems, NETYS 2020, held in Marrakech, Morocco, in June 2020.* The 18 revised full papers and 4 short papers presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The papers cover all aspects related to the design and the development of these systems, including, but not restricted to, concurrent and distributed algorithms, parallel/concurrent/distributed programming, multi-core architectures, formal verification, distributed databases, cloud systems, networks, security, formal verification, etc. *The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Distributed Computing and Networking
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking, ICDCN 2010, held in Kolkata, India, during January 3-6, 2010. There were 169 submissions, 96 to the networking track and 73 to the distributed computing track. After review the committee selected 23 papers for the networking and 21 for the distributed computing track. The topics addressed are network protocol and applications, fault-tolerance and security, sensor networks, distributed algorithms and optimization, peer-to-peer networks and network tracing, parallel and distributed systems, wireless networks, applications and distributed systems, optical, cellular and mobile ad hoc networks, and theory of distributed systems.
Blockchain Scalability and its Foundations in Distributed Systems
This practical new book offers the distributed-computing fundamental knowledge for individuals to connect with one another in a more secure and efficient way than with traditional blockchains. These new forms of secure, scalable blockchains promise to replace centralized institutions to connect individuals without the risks of user manipulations or data extortions. The techniques taught herein consist of enhancing blockchain security and making blockchain scalable by relying on the observation that no blockchain can exist without solving the consensus problem. First, the state-of-the-art of consensus protocols are analyzed, hence motivating the need for a new family of consensus protocols of...
Principles of Distributed Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems, OPODIS 2014, Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, in December 2014. The 32 papers presented together with two invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 98 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on consistency; distributed graph algorithms; fault tolerance; models; radio networks; robots; self-stabilization; shared data structures; shared memory; synchronization and universal construction.
Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17 International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2015, held in Edmonton, AB, Canada, in August 2015. The 16 regular papers presented together with 8 brief announcements and 3 keynote lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 38 submissions. The Symposium is organized in several tracks, reflecting topics to self-*properties. The tracks are self-stabilization; fault-tolerance and dependability; ad-hoc and sensor networks; mobile agents; system security in distributed computing; and formal methods and distributed algorithms.
Distributed Computing
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23nd International Symposium on Distributed Computing, DISC 2009, held in Elche, Spain, in September 2009. The 33 revised full papers, selected from 121 submissions, are presented together with 15 brief announcements of ongoing works; all of them were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers address all aspects of distributed computing, and were organized in topical sections on Michel Raynal and Shmuel Zaks 60th birthday symposium, award nominees, transactional memory, shared memory, distributed and local graph algorithms, modeling issues, game theory, failure detectors, from theory to practice, graph algorithms and routing, consensus and byzantine agreement and radio networks.
Algorithmic Aspects of Cloud Computing
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Algorithmic Aspects of Cloud Computing, ALGOCLOUD 2021, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in September 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held online. The 4 revised full papers and 1 short paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 11 submissions. The aim of the symposium is to present research activities and results on topics related to algorithmic, design, and development aspects of modern cloud-based systems.
