uBFT: Microsecond-Scale BFT using Disaggregated Memory

Rachid Guerraoui, Mihail Igor Zablotchi, Athanasios Xygkis, Antoine Murat

We propose uBFT, the first State Machine Replication (SMR) system to achieve microsecond-scale latency in data centers, while using only 2f+1 replicas to tolerate f Byzantine failures. The Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) provided by uBFT is essential as pu ...

When to Hedge in Interactive Services

Aikaterini Argyraki, Edouard Bugnion, Mia Primorac

In online data-intensive (OLDI) services, each client request typically executes on multiple servers in parallel; as a result, “system hiccups”, although rare within a single server, can interfere with many client requests and cause violations of service-l ...

Optimistic Causal Consistency for Geo-Replicated Key-Value Stores

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

In this paper we present a new approach to implementing causal consistency in geo-replicated data stores, which we call Optimistic Causal Consistency (OCC). The optimism in our approach lies in that updates from a remote data center are immediately made vi ...

Coding Structure and Replication Optimization for Interactive Multiview Video Streaming

Pascal Frossard

Multiview video refers to videos of the same dynamic 3-D scene captured simultaneously by multiple closely spaced cameras from different viewpoints. We study interactive streaming of pre-encoded multiview videos, where, at any time, a client can request an ...

Peer Sharing Behaviour in the eDonkey Network, and Implications for the Design of Server-less File Sharing Systems

Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Sidath Handurukande

In this paper we present an empirical study of a workload gathered by crawling the eDonkey network - a dominant peer-to-peer file sharing system - for over 50 days. We first confirm the presence of some known features, in particular the prevalence of free- ...
