This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2019, held in Pisa, Italy, in October 2019. The 21 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 45 submissions. The papers deal with the design and development of distributed systems with a focus on systems that are able to provide guarantees on their structure, performance, and/or security in the face of an adverse operational environment.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2018, held in Tokyo, Japan, in November 2018. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The papers are organized into three tracks reflecting major trends related to distributed systems: theoretical and practical aspects of stabilizing systems; distributed networks and concurrency; and safety in malicious environments.
The advent of multi-core architectures and cloud-computing has brought parallel programming into the mainstream of software development. Unfortunately, writing scalable parallel programs using traditional lock-based synchronization primitives is well known to be a hard, time consuming and error-prone task, mastered by only a minority of specialized programmers. Building on the familiar abstraction of atomic transactions, Transactional Memory (TM) promises to free programmers from the complexity of conventional synchronization schemes, simplifying the development and verification of concurrent programs, enhancing code reliability, and boosting productivity. Over the last decade TM has been su...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2009, held in Lyon, France, in November 2009. The 49 revised full papers and 14 brief announcements presented together with three invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 126 submissions. The papers address all safety and security-related aspects of self-stabilizing systems in various areas. The most topics related to self-* systems. The special topics were alternative systems and models, autonomic computational science, cloud computing, embedded systems, fault-tolerance in distributed systems / dependability, formal methods in distributed systems, grid computing, mobility and dynamic networks, multicore computing, peer-to-peer systems, self-organizing systems, sensor networks, stabilization, and system safety and security.

The papers are organized in topical sections on distributed graph algorithms; shared memory; brief announcements; fault-tolerance and security; paxos plus; wireless; network algorithms; aspects of locality; consensus; concurrency.
This book proposes an approach to the analysis of information using a neural network based on neural-like elements and temporal summation of signals, which makes it possible to implement a structural approach to the analysis of information streams. Together with associative access to information, structural multilevel analysis enables the interpretation of information processing in columns of the cerebral cortex of humans. Using representations of information processing in the hippocampus, it is possible to re-construct the human model of the world and to interpret purposeful behaviour. The book describes the procedure for synchronizing the world models of various people, allowing automatic semantic analysis of unstructured text information, including construction of a semantic network of a text as its semantic portrait.
