Asynchronous Failure Detectors
Cornejo, Alejandro; Lynch, Nancy; Sastry, Srikanth (2013-01-30)Failure detectors -- oracles that provide information about process crashes -- are an important abstraction for crash tolerance in distributed systems. The generality of failure-detector theory, while providing great ... -

Task Allocation in Ant Colonies
Cornejo, Alejandro; Dornhaus, Anna; Nagpal, Radhika; Lynch, Nancy Ann (Springer-Verlag, 2014-08)In this paper we propose a mathematical model for studying the phenomenon of division of labor in ant colonies. Inside this model we investigate how simple task allocation mechanisms can be used to achieve an optimal ...
