Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have recently rapidly grown to facilitate a wide range of
innovative applications that can fundamentally change the way cyber-physical systems …

Next-generation non-volatile memories (NVMs) promise DRAM-like performance,
persistence, and high density. They can attach directly to processors to form non-volatile …

This paper introduces Beldi, a library and runtime system for writing and composing fault-
tolerant and transactional stateful serverless functions. Beldi runs on existing providers and …

This paper presents Eve, a new Execute-Verify architecture that allows state machine
replication to scale to multi-core servers. Eve departs from the traditional agree-execute …

Cloud scale provides the vast resources necessary to replace failed components, but this is
useful only if those failures can be detected. For this reason, the major availability …

The availability of data center services is jeopardized by various network incidents. One of
the biggest challenges for network incident handling is to accurately localize the failures …

We conduct a comprehensive study of development and deployment issues of six popular
and important cloud systems (Hadoop MapReduce, HDFS, HBase, Cassandra, ZooKeeper …

We consider the problem of making apps fault-tolerant through replication, when apps
operate at the microsecond scale, as in finance, embedded computing, and microservices …

Upgrade is one of the most disruptive yet unavoidable maintenance tasks that undermine
the availability of distributed systems. Any failure during an upgrade is catastrophic, as it …

The newly-emerging''fail-slow''failures plague both software and hardware where the victim
components are still functioning yet with degraded performance. To address this problem …
