چکیده

Replication and majority voting are well-known and widely-used methods for achieving fault-tolerance in distributed systems. An open area of investigation is coordinating the voting in a secure manner, so as to withstand malicious attacks. The Timed-Buffer Distributed Voting Algorithm (TB-DVA), a secure distributed voting protocol, is introduced for this purpose. It is contrasted with several other distributed voting schemes in order to show its unique contribution for both fault-tolerance and security, which are essential ingredients for system dependability.

Distributed multi-agent Load Frequency Control for a Large-scale Power System Optimized by Grey Wolf Optimizer

This paper aims to design an optimal distributed multi-agent controller for load frequency control and optimal power flow purposes. The controller parameters are optimized using Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm. The designed optimal distributed controller is employed for load frequency control in the IEEE 30-bus test system with six generators. The controller of each generator is consider...

Dependability assessment for decentralized systems

Conventional dependability measures, such as reliability or availability, assume that the equipment characterized by the measure is either operational or has failed. This dichotomy does not hold for decentralized or distributed systems because these can operate in modes in which partial or degraded service is furnished. Whether a specific degraded mode should be counted as "operational" or "fai...

Static Task Allocation in Distributed Systems Using Parallel Genetic Algorithm

Over the past two decades, PC speeds have increased from a few instructions per second to several million instructions per second. The tremendous speed of today's networks as well as the increasing need for high-performance systems has made researchers interested in parallel and distributed computing. The rapid growth of distributed systems has led to a variety of problems. Task allocation is a...
