We introduce a middleware service for WfMSs which offers qualities for client/server communication. These qualities characterize the behavior of clients and servers in case of failure and recovery. Our middleware service builds an abstraction from the concrete implementation of a client/server interaction and hides characteristics of underlying system services, e.g. RPC mechanisms and TP monitors. For this reason, our middleware service supports the implementation of reliable distributed WfMSs.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"36 7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114282969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An object model that supports mobile objects should have special characteristics such as mutability of object's structure and semantics to facilitate adjustment to different environments, self-containment of objects to allow their migration as autonomous units, and extensive support for security. We discuss the requirements and design guidelines of such a model, and present MROM, a reflective model based on these guidelines. We also discuss MROM's implementation and present a component interoperability framework that was built on top of it, as an example application of the model.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133022004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In applications that use a large number of groups, significant performance gains can be attained if these groups share the resources required to provide virtual synchrony. A service that maps user groups onto instances of a virtually synchronous implementation is called a Light-Weight Group Service. This paper discusses the Light-Weight Group protocols in dynamic environments, where mappings cannot be defined a priori and may change over time. We show that it is possible to establish mappings that promote sharing and, at the same time, minimize interference. These mappings can be established in an automated manner using heuristics applied locally at each node. Experiments using an implementation in the Horus system show that significant performance improvements can be achieved with this approach.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134588649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The vast computer networks easily bring together customers and vendors who are physically distributed in different continents. Current research in electronic commerce mainly focuses on payment mechanisms. However, the global presence of customers and vendors makes it difficult to build trust among the parties involved in a transaction. We develop systematic mechanisms to address the trust problem in a network commerce environment. We first develop protocols for a single-customer single-vendor case where one customer buys goods from one vendor. Then we derive protocols for more complicated environments such as when a customer wants to buy goods from several vendors as part of a single transaction. Most of our protocols require some trusted third-party to intermediate transactions. However the workload and requirements placed on the trusted third-party vary from the whole goods and payment store-and-forward to very simple book-keepings of encryption keys. Our contributions also include an algorithm to find the optimal trusted agent.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133784551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We present a distributed algorithm to detect generalized deadlocks in distributed systems. The algorithm performs reduction of a distributed wait-for-graph (WFG) to determine a deadlock. If sufficient information to decide the reducibility of a node is not available at that node, the algorithm attempts reduction later in a lazy manner. We prove the correctness of the algorithm. The algorithm has a message complexity of 2e messages and a worst case time complexity of 2d hops, where e is the number of edges and d is the diameter of the WFG. The algorithm is shown to perform better in both time and message complexity than the best known distributed algorithms to detect distributed generalized deadlocks. We conjecture that the algorithm is optimal in the number of messages and time delay, among distributed algorithms to detect generalized deadlocks.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128327550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Any two quorums in a quorum system must have at least one element in common. Quorum systems can be used for many different applications in a distributed system. A quorum system is available, if all elements in at least one quorum ore operational. The elements are probed to determine if they are available. A probe strategy is used to determine the order in which the elements are probed. This paper studies the average case probe complexity, which is defined as the expected number of probes required to determine if a given quorum system is available. Then, two new probe strategies are presented and analyzed. The first strategy is a generalizations of the alternating color strategy, and the second strategy is based on a measure of the relative importance of each element in the system.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115535837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scheme uses the standard classification of network traffic into two priority classes based on their bandwidth requirement and delay tolerance. We classify the users as local or departing based on their current coordinates in the cell. A call admission algorithm, a call management algorithm and a prediction based resource reservation algorithm which reserves the specified bandwidth (by borrowing channels from neighboring cells, if required) in the predicted destination cell(s) of a departing user are presented. A novel approach called bandwidth compaction is proposed which enables more efficient spectrum utilization. Simulation experiments show improvements of about 24% in the call blocking probability and 12% in the connection dropping probability over other bandwidth reserving schemes. An overall improvement of 24% in bandwidth utilization over other schemes not employing any bandwidth management technique, is also observed.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124141826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It relies on wish lists, trust lists and capability lists. Wish lists are carried along with programs or mobile objects and denote the resources requested by the program to do what it claims to do. Wish lists are transformed into capability lists when downloaded programs are started. Trust lists reside on stations and are used to determine which members of wish lists are taken over into capability lists. The capability lists are enforced during the execution of programs. All lists are symbolic to enable their interpretation in heterogeneous environments.

Middleware, such as distributed shared objects (DSO), attempts to improve programmability of such systems, by providing globally accessible 'object' abstractions. Researchers have developed consistency protocols for replicated 'memory' objects. These protocols are well suited to scientific applications but less suited to multimedia or groupware applications. We address the state sharing needs of complex distributed applications with: high-frequency symmetric accesses to shared objects; unpredictable and limited locality of accesses; dynamically changing sharing behavior; and potential data races. We show that a DSO system exploiting application-level temporal and spatial constraints on shared objects can outperform shared object protocols which do not exploit application-level constraints. We compare our S(emantic) DSO against entry consistency using a sample application having the four properties mentioned above.","PeriodicalId":122990,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 17th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems","volume":"200 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121086362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
