George Giakkoupis and Dimitrios Los from the WIDE team, jointly with Marcos Kiwi (Universidad de Chile), had their paper entitled “Naively Sorting Evolving Data is Optimal and Robust” accepted at FOCS 2024, one of the leading conferences in computer science! In this paper, the authors study sorting in the evolving…
Two papers from the WIDE team have been accepted for presentation at ACM Middleware 2024. The first paper concerns predicting the effects of a system-level patch on applications running inside virtual machines in the Cloud. The work entitled “𝑈𝑇𝑤𝑖𝑛𝑉𝑀: Reliable hints on the effects of hypervisor updates on VMs in…
Congratulations to Remy Raes for his paper accepted at DAIS 2024. The paper introduces a novel framework, FIL, that allows the storage of large amounts of sensor data in constrained devices while controlling the modelling error. FIL was evaluated on real world datasets on mainstream smartphones, which shows its importance…
Congratulations to George Giakkoupis for his paper entitled “Faster Randomized Repeated Choice and DCAS” with Dante Bencivenga and Philipp Woelfel, accepted at PODC 2024. In this paper, the authors revisit the Double-Compare-and-Swap (DCAS) problem. DCAS is a useful and fundamental synchronization primitive for shared memory systems, which, contrary to CAS,…
Congratulations to Manon Sourisseau, Jérémie Decouchant, François Taïani, and David Bromberg for their paper entitled “Partition Detection in Byzantine Networks” accepted at ICDCS 2024. Jérémie works at TU Delft; meanwhile, all remaining authors are members of the WIDE team. The paper addresses the problem of detecting network partitions while considering the…
An extended version of the paper “Good-case Early-Stopping Latency of Synchronous Byzantine Reliable Broadcast: The Deterministic Case”, published at DISC 2022, has been accepted at Distributed Computing, a leading journal in the field of distributed algorithms. The paper, authored by Timothé Albouy, Davide Frey, Michel Raynal and François Taïani, presents…
The WIDE team together with its partner Broadpeak is organizing the Inria/IRISA Broadpeak Workshop on Streaming (WOS’23). The workshop will take place on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, at Inria Rennes – IRISA, in Rennes. The full-day workshop will focus on system aspects of video streaming, with a full-day program of…
The paper entitled “The Synchronization Power (Consensus Number) of Access-Control Objects: the Case of AllowList and DenyList” has been accepted at DISC 2023, the International Symposium on Distributed Computing, one of the premier venues on the theory of distributed systems. The paper, authored by Davide Frey, Mathieu Gestin, and Michel Raynal…
Congratulations to George Giakkoupis for his best paper award at PODC 2023 for his paper entitled “Word-Size RMR Trade-offs for Recoverable Mutual Exclusion” with David Yu Cheng Chan and Philipp Woelfel from the University of Calgary.
Congratulations to Georges Giakkoupis for his two papers accepted at ACM PODC 2023. The two papers are as follows: Word-Size RMR Trade-offs for Recoverable Mutual Exclusion by David Yu Cheng Chan (University of Calgary), George Giakkoupis and Philipp Woelfel (University of Calgary): The paper presents a tight lower bound on…
