A Model for Probabilistic Reasoning on Assume/Guarantee Contracts

Benoît Delahaye, Benoît Caillaud

In this paper, we present a probabilistic adaptation of an Assume/Guarantee contract formalism. For the sake of generality, we assume that the extended state machines used in the c…

Distributed Management of Massive Data: an Efficient Fine-Grain Data Access Scheme

Bogdan Nicolae, Gabriel Antoniu, Luc Bougé

This paper addresses the problem of efficiently storing and accessing massive data blocks in a large-scale distributed environment, while providing efficient fine-grain access to d…

Enabling Lock-Free Concurrent Fine-Grain Access to Massive Distributed Data: Application to Supernovae Detection

Bogdan Nicolae, Gabriel Antoniu, Luc Bougé

We consider the problem of efficiently managing massive data in a large-scale distributed environment. We consider data strings of size in the order of Terabytes, shared and access…

WCET analysis of multi-level set-associative instruction caches

Damien Hardy, Isabelle Puaut

With the advent of increasingly complex hardware in real-time embedded systems (processors with performance enhancing features such as pipelines, cache hierarchy, multiple cores),…

Goal-oriented Dialog as a Collaborative Subordinated Activity involving Collective Acceptance

Sylvie Saget, Marc Guyomard

Modeling dialog as a collaborative activity consists notably in specifying the content of the Conversational Common Ground and the kind of social mental state involved. In previous…

Monotony in Service Orchestrations

Anne Bouillard, Sidney Rosario, Albert Benveniste +1

Web Service orchestrations are compositions of different Web Services to form a new service. The services called during the orchestration guarantee a given performance to the orche…

A classification of invasive patterns in AOP

Freddy Munoz, Benoit Baudry, Olivier Barais

Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) improves modularity by encapsulating crosscutting concerns into aspects. Some mechanisms to compose aspects allow invasiveness as a mean to integr…

Fine-grained parallelization of similarity search between protein sequences

Van Hoa Nguyen, Dominique Lavenier

This report presents the implementation of a protein sequence comparison algorithm specifically designed for speeding up time consuming part on parallel hardware such as SSE instru…

Ascending runs in dependent uniformly distributed random variables: Application to wireless networks

Nathalie Mitton, Katy Paroux, Bruno Sericola +1

We analyze in this paper the longest increasing contiguous sequence or maximal ascending run of random variables with common uniform distribution but not independent. Their depende…

Timed Quorum System for Large-Scale and Dynamic Environments

Vincent Gramoli, Michel Raynal

This paper presents Timed Quorum System (TQS), a new quorum system especially suited for large-scale and dynamic systems. TQS requires that two quorums intersect with high probabil…

Energy Aware Self-Organizing Density Management in Wireless Sensor Networks

Erwan Le Merrer, Vincent Gramoli, Anne-Marie Kermarrec +2

Energy consumption is the most important factor that determines sensor node lifetime. The optimization of wireless sensor network lifetime targets not only the reduction of energy…

Core Persistence in Peer-to-Peer Systems: Relating Size to Lifetime

Vincent Gramoli, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Achour Mostefaoui +2

Distributed systems are now both very large and highly dynamic. Peer to peer overlay networks have been proved efficient to cope with this new deal that traditional approaches can…
