  2. 1. Programming Model and Protocols for Reconfigurable Distributed Systems

    Author : Cosmin Ionel Arad; Seif Haridi; Gregory Chockler; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; distributed systems; programming model; message-passing concurrency; nested hierarchical composition; reactive components; software architecture; dynamic reconfiguration; multi-core; discrete-event simulation; peer-to-peer; testing; debugging; distributed key-value stores; data replication; consistency; linearizability; network partition tolerance; consistent hashing; self-organization; scalability; elasticity; fault tolerance; consistent quorums;

    Abstract : Distributed systems are everywhere. From large datacenters to mobile devices, an ever richer assortment of applications and services relies on distributed systems, infrastructure, and protocols. Despite their ubiquity, testing and debugging distributed systems remains notoriously hard. READ MORE

  4. 2. Distributed Optimization and Control : Primal--Dual, Online, and Event-Triggered Algorithms

    Author : Xinlei Yi; Karl H. Johansson; Dimos V. Dimarogonas; John S. Baras; Antonis Papachristodoulou; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Distributed nonconvex optimization; distributed online convex optimization; distributed event-triggered control; primal-dual algorithm; stochastic gradient descent; zeroth-order algorithm; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In distributed optimization and control, each network node performs local computation based on its own information and information received from its neighbors through a communication network to achieve a global objective. Although many distributed optimization and control algorithms have been proposed, core theoretical problems with important practical relevance remain. READ MORE

  5. 3. Compile-time Safety and Runtime Performance in Programming Frameworks for Distributed Systems

    Author : Lars Kroll; Seif Haridi; Jim Dowling; Peter Van Roy; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; distributed systems; distributed computing; programming systems; programming languages; computer science; domain specific languages; message-passing; actor model; component model; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Distributed Systems, that is systems that must tolerate partial failures while exploiting parallelism, are a fundamental part of the software landscape today. Yet, their development and design still pose many challenges to developers when it comes to reliability and performance, and these challenges often have a negative impact on developer productivity.

  6. 4. Distributed and federated learning of support vector machines and applications

    Author : Shirin Tavara; Alexander Schliep; Alexander Karlsson; Lili Jiang; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Skövde Artificial Intelligence Lab SAIL ; Skövde Artificial Intelligence Lab SAIL ;

    Abstract : Machine Learning (ML) has achieved remarkable success in solving classification, regression, and related problems over the past decade. In particular the exponential growth of digital data, makes using ML inevitable and necessary to exploit the wealth of information hidden inside the data. READ MORE

  7. 5. Distributed k-ary System: Algorithms for Distributed Hash Tables

    Author : Ali Ghodsi; Seif Haridi; Alexander Reinefeld; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; distributed hash tables; structured overlay networks; distributed algorithms; distributed systems; group communication; replication; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : This dissertation presents algorithms for data structures called distributed hash tables (DHT) or structured overlay networks, which are used to build scalable self-managing distributed systems. The provided algorithms guarantee lookup consistency in the presence of dynamism: they guarantee consistent lookup results in the presence of nodes joining and leaving. READ MORE
