This book presents a collection of 38 position and research papers surveying the future landscape of research in distributed computing, written by the participants of the Workshop on Future Directions in Distributed Computing, held in Bertinoro, Italy in June 2002. The papers are grouped into four topical sections. The first deals with foundations of distributed computing. The second section surveys research issues in novel communication and network services. The third section is about data, file services, coherence, and replication in network computing. The last section deals with system and application issues. The book also includes two papers presenting insights into technological and social processes that are part of the development of the distributed computing technology. All in all, the book contains a plethora of research topics that are targets of future research or that are already being addressed by forward-looking research in distributed computing. The book was written to be a source of inspiration for researchers and a source of motivation for graduate students interested in entering the exciting research field of distributed computing.

Modern civilization relies on a functioning information infrastructure. As a result, dependability has become a central issue in all disciplines of systems engineering and software architecture.Theories, methods and tools that help to master the problems encountered in the design process and the management of operations are therefore of utmost importance for the future of information and communication technology.The present volume documents the results of a research program on Dependable Information and Communication Systems (DICS). The members of the project met in two workshops organized by the Hasler Foundation. This state-of-the-art survey contains 3 overview articles identifying major issues of dependability and presenting the latest solutions, as well as 10 carefully selected and revised papers depicting the research results originating from those workshops. The first workshop took place in Münchenwiler, Switzerland, in March 2004, and the second workshop, which marked the conclusion of the projects, in Löwenberg, Switzerland, in October 2005. The papers are organized in topical sections on surveys, dependable software, dependable computing, and dependable networks.

This volume presents the proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Distributed Algorithms (WDAG 93), held in Lausanne, Switzerland, September 1993. It contains 22 papers selected from 72 submissions. The papers discuss topics from all areas of distributed computing and their applications, including distributed algorithms for control and communication, fault-tolerant distributed algorithms, network protocols, algorithms for managing replicated data, protocols for real-time distributed systems, issues of asynchrony, synchrony and real-time, mechanisms for security in distributed systems, techniques for the design and analysis of distributed algorithms, distributed database techniques, distributed combinatorial and optimization algorithms, and distributed graph algorithms.
Theory and Practice in Distributed Systems

This volume is based on the workshop "Unifying Theory and Practice in Distributed Systems" held in Schlob Dagstuhl, Germany in September 1994. During the past 20 years, a substantial theoretical and practical base has evolved in the area of distributed computing. However, this work has been done by largely disjoint communities of researchers; this workshop brought together established experts from both worlds. The volume contains 17 full papers refereed and revised after the workshop so that they reflect original research enriched by insights gained through discussions at the workshop. Among the issues treated are paradigms and concepts, fundamental algorithms and principles, fault-tolerance, real-time, system structures, large case aspects and others.
Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2008, held in Detroit, MI, USA, in November 2008. The 17 revised full papers presented together with the abstracts of 3 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers address all safety and security-related aspects of self-stabilizing systems in various areas of distributed computing including peer-to-peer networks, wireless sensor networks, mobile ad-hoc networks, and robotic networks. The papers are organized in topical sections on MAC layer protocols, wireless networks, stabilizing algorithms, as well as security and system models.

Replication is a topic of interest in the distributed computing, distributed systems, and database communities. Although these communities have traditionally looked at replication from different viewpoints and with different goals (e.g., performance versus fault tolerance), recent developments have led to a convergence of these different goals. The objective of this state-of-the-art survey is not to speculate about the future of replication, but rather to understand the present, to make an assessment of approximately 30 years of research on replication, and to present a comprehensive view of the achievements made during this period of time.This book is the outcome of the seminar entitled A 30-Year Perspective on Replication, which was held at Monte Verità, Ascona, Switzerland, in November 2007. The book is organized in 13 self-contained chapters written by most of the people who have contributed to developing state-of-the-art replication techniques. It presents a comprehensive view of existing solutions, from a theoretical as well as from a practical point of view. It covers replication of processes/objects and of databases; replication for fault tolerance and replication for performance - benign faults and malicious (Byzantine) faults - thus forming a basis for both professionals and students of distributed computing, distributed systems, and databases.
