      Analyzing the number of slow reads for semifast atomic read/write register implementations 

      Georgiou, Chryssis; Kentros, Sotirios; Nicolaou, Nicolas C.; Shvartsman, A. A. (2009)
      Developing fast implementations of atomic read/write registers in the message passing model is among the fundamental problems in distributed computing. Typical implementations require two communication round trips for read ...

      The impact of randomization in smoothing networks 

      Mavronicolas, Marios; Sauerwald, T. (2010)
      We revisit randomized smoothing networks (Herlihy and Tirthapura in J Parallel Distrib Comput 66(5):626-632, 2006), which are made up of balancers and wires. We assume that balancers are oriented independently and uniformly ...

      Reliable internet-based master-worker computing in the presence of malicious workers 

      Fernández Anta, Antonio; Georgiou, Chryssis; López, Luis; Santos, Agustín (2012)
      We consider a Master-Worker distributed system where a master processor assigns, over the Internet, tasks to a collection of n workers, which are untrusted and might act maliciously. In addition, a worker may not reply to ...
