Abstract:

BROADCAST will develop the principles for understanding, designing, and implementing large scale distributed computing systems (LSDCS), in three broad areas: ffl Fundamental concepts. Evaluate and design computational paradigms (such as ordering, causality, consensus); structuring models (groups and fragmented objects); and algorithms (especially for consistency). ffl Systems Architecture. Develop the architecture of LSDCS, in the areas of: naming, identification, binding and locating objects in LSDCS; resource management (e.g. garbage collection); communication and group management. Solutions should scale and take into account fragmentation, and recent technological developments (disconnectable devices and 64-bit address spaces). ffl Systems Engineering. Efficiently supporting the architecture, exploiting the concepts and algorithms developed earlier, as kernel and storage support for numerous fine-grain complex objects; and programming support tools for
