In this paper we represent a new framework for integrated distributed and reliable systems. In the proposed framework we have used three parts to increase Satisfaction and Performance of this framework. At first we analyze previous…
Extreme circumstances in which a local distribution system is electrically isolated from the main power supply may not always be avoidable. Efforts must be made to keep the lights on for such an isolated distribution system (IDS) until…
We consider the problem of making distributed computations robust to noise, in particular to worst-case (adversarial) corruptions of messages. We give a general distributed interactive coding scheme which simulates any asynchronous…
Serverless applications can be particularly difficult to troubleshoot, as these applications are often composed of various managed and partly managed services. Faults are often unpredictable and can occur at multiple points, even in simple…
This paper considers the problem of multi-agent distributed linear regression in the presence of system noises. In this problem, the system comprises multiple agents wherein each agent locally observes a set of data points, and the agents'…
We consider distributed on-device learning with limited communication and security requirements. We propose a new robust distributed optimization algorithm with efficient communication and attack tolerance. The proposed algorithm has…
We study the classic subgraph enumeration problem under distributed settings. Existing solutions either suffer from severe memory crisis or rely on large indexes, which makes them impractical for very large graphs. Most of them follow a…
In this article, we study the problem of robust reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided downlink communication over heterogeneous RIS types in the supervised learning setting. By modeling downlink communication over heterogeneous RIS…
We investigate the problem of maintaining an encoded distributed storage system when some nodes contain adversarial errors. Using the error-correction capabilities that are built into the existing redundancy of the system, we propose a…
Deduplication has been largely employed in distributed storage systems to improve space efficiency. Traditional deduplication research ignores the design specifications of shared-nothing distributed storage systems such as no central…
In this paper, we develop a distributionally robust optimal control approach for differentially private dynamical systems, enabling a plant to securely outsource control computation to an untrusted remote server. We consider a plant that…
Aggregation is an important building block of modern distributed applications, allowing the determination of meaningful properties (e.g. network size, total storage capacity, average load, majorities, etc.) that are used to direct the…
We study virtual energy storage services based on the aggregation of EV batteries in parking lots under time-varying, uncertain EV departures and state-of-charge limits. We propose a convex data-driven scheduling framework in which a…
As predictive models are increasingly being deployed in high-stakes decision making (e.g., loan approvals), there has been growing interest in post hoc techniques which provide recourse to affected individuals. These techniques generate…
To mitigate the vulnerability of distribution grids to severe weather events, some electric utilities use preemptive de-energization as the primary line of defense, causing significant power outages. In such instances, networked microgrids…
In this paper, we introduce a model of a distributed storage system that is locally recoverable from any single server failure. Unlike the usual local recovery model of codes for distributed storage, this model accounts for the fact that…
A shared read/write register emulation provides the illusion of shared-memory on top of message-passing models. The main hurdle with such emulations is dealing with server faults in the system. Several crash-tolerant register emulations in…
Electrical power grids are vulnerable to cascading failures that can lead to large blackouts. Detection and prevention of cascading failures in power grids is impor- tant. Currently, grid operators mainly monitor the state (loading level)…
Load Balancing is a fundamental technology for scaling cloud infrastructure. It enables systems to distribute incoming traffic across backend servers using predefined algorithms such as round robin, weighted round robin, least connections,…
Large-scale storage cluster systems need to manage a vast amount of data locations. A naive data locations management maintains pairs of data ID and nodes storing the data in tables. However, it is not practical when the number of pairs is…
