Proceedings of the May 1997 conference. Contains 67 papers presented at the conference as well as three panel sessions and three keynote talks. The panels discuss guaranteed quality of service for distributed systems, Java and distributed computing and scalability of the web--all topics which represent trends in distributed computing. Others topics include cache consistency; network protocols; fault- tolerant systems; quorums for scalability; mobile communications; load balancing; WEB; new applications; real-time communications; languages and software; distributed shared memory; security and protocols; and distributed multimedia.

Annotation Proceedings of the February 1997 workshop, WORDS'97, include one panel discussion--selecting quality of service in a heterogeneous environment: bandwidth, security, fault tolerance and real-time behavior. The rest of the 45 papers are organized in sessions on models/language, operating systems/architecture, system engineering, system validation and verification, applications, dependability and fault tolerance, and communication. Two early bird sessions covered a variety of topics, including object-based checkpoints in distributed systems and time-bounded cooperative recovery with the distributed real-time application.

Cooperative connected and automated mobility (CCAM) has the potential to reshape the transportation ecosystem in a revolutionary way. Transportation systems will be safer, more efficient and more comfortable. Cars are going to be the third living space, as passengers will have the freedom to use their car to live, work and travel. Despite the massive effort devoted, both by academia and industry, to developing connected and automated vehicles, there are still many issues to be addressed, including not only scientific and technological, but also regulatory and political issues. This book, mostly centered on the scientific and technological aspects of CCAMs, features seven articles highlighting recent advances of the state of the art in different CCAM technologies. Two papers address vehicular platooning, a key application for day-1 automated driving, other presents a scheme to improve the resource utilization of vehicular networks, while another paper addresses critical train communications, proposing an architecture based on 5G, SDN and MPTCP to provide path diversity and end-to-end redundancy. One paper describes the status of roadside deployment activities and analyzes the policies and practices of cooperative driving in the European Union. Finally, two review papers, one on congestion control techniques for VANETs and the other on fault tolerance techniques for vehicular networks, conclude the book.

Papers from an October 1999 symposium present the latest research on facets of reliable distributed systems, including mobile computing, distributed algorithms, formal methods, replication techniques, scalability, failure analysis, system support, logging and checkpointing, and CORBA systems. Novel techniques are proposed, design paradigms are explored, and critical validation issues are addressed. Specific topics include diffusing updates in a Byzantine environment, optimistic recovery in multi-threaded distributed systems, and resolving distributed deadlocks in the OR request model.
