Organizations build alliances to create products or services that fulfill a specific market need. These alliances have been around for a while, and researchers describe them in various terms like Virtual Organization, or Ecosystem. The ...

Distributed tracing is a method used to monitor applications by tracking and visualizing requests as they move across various components and services in a distributed system. Despite being widely adopted in major cloud-computing applications, to the best ...

Logic camouflage is a widely adopted technique that mitigates the threat of intellectual property (IP) piracy and overproduction in the integrated circuit (IC) supply chain. Camouflaged logic achieves functional obfuscation through physical-level ...

This paper presents a strong physical unclonable function (PUF) based on the arbiter mechanism and spin orbit torque magnetic random access memory (SOT-MRAM). This proposed PUF can be easily reconfigured, with 2³² challenge-response pairs (CRPs) ...

BGP reconfigurations are a daily occurrence for most network operators, especially in large networks. Yet, performing safe and robust BGP reconfiguration changes is still an open problem. Few BGP reconfiguration techniques exist, and they are either (i) ...

Omni-Paxos is a system for state machine replication that is completely resilient to partial network partitions, a major source of service disruptions in recent years. Omni-Paxos achieves its resilience through a decoupled design that separates the ...

Emulating a shared atomic, read/write storage system is a fundamental problem in distributed computing. Replicating atomic objects among a set of data hosts was the norm for traditional implementations (e.g., [11]) in order to guarantee the availability ...

Targeted at the requirements of high reliability and extensibility of space station payload system, an On-orbit Reconfigurable Technology and implementation method based on SmartFusion2 is proposed. Adopting the theory of In Application Programming (IAP)...

Finding the right abstraction is critical for reasoning about complex systems such as distributed protocols like Paxos and Raft. Despite a recent abundance of impressive verification work in this area, we claim the ways that past efforts model ...

Large distributed systems with an emphasis on adaptability are now considered a necessity in many domains, yet reconfiguration of these systems is still largely carried out in an ad hoc fashion, a process that is both inefficient and error-prone. ...

An adaptive video object detection system selects different execution paths at runtime, based on video content and available resources, so as to maximize accuracy under a target latency objective (e.g., 30 frames per second). Such a system is well ...

\emphReconfiguration problems require finding a step-by-step transformation between a pair of feasible solutions for a particular problem. The primary concern in Theoretical Computer Science has been revealing their computational complexity for ...

cREAtIve targets the development of novel highly-adaptable embedded deep learning solutions for automotive and traffic monitoring applications, including position sensor processing, scene interpretation based on LiDAR, and object detection and ...

The advent of distributed energy resources is undoubtedly transforming the nature of the electric power system. The crisis of conventional energy sources and their environmental effects resulted in the integration of Distributed Generators (DGs) into the ...

Wearables are poised to transform health and wellness through automation of cost-effective, objective, and real-time health monitoring. However, machine learning models for these systems are designed based on labeled data collected, and feature ...

The definition of institution formalizes the intuitive notion of logic in a category-based setting. Similarly, the concept of stratified institution provides an abstract approach to Kripke semantics. This includes hybrid logics, a type of modal logics ...

In this paper, we study systems of distributed entities that can actively modify their communication network. This gives rise to distributed algorithms that apart from communication can also exploit network reconfiguration in order to carry out a given ...

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) replaces proprietary network appliances by softwarizing them in commodity servers and they are called as Virtual Network Functions(VNFs). As the network traffic changes dynamically, it is challenging to find the ...

Hardware acceleration of database query processing can be done with the help of FPGAs. In particular, they are partially reconfigurable at runtime, which allows for the adaptation to a variety of queries. Reconfiguration itself, however, takes some ...
