MS Thesis Committee

Motivation
  • As researchers share computational resources, such as objects in large distributed environments, it becomes difficult to achieve scalability of synchronization. Concurrency protocols currently lack scalability. The need to enhance current middleware services to meet these requirements is imminent. Also, emerging technologies such as sensor networks operate under tight energy constraints. Communication costs being dominant consumer of energy for such systems, its important to minimize the message overhead.

Approach
  • Conceive, design and implement a scalable concurrency protocol for large distributed systems
  • Enhance the scalability of current middleware services by embedding the protocol into existing CORBA implementations e.g. TAO (The ACE ORB)
  • Extend the protocol to meet real-time constraints related to concurrency services, sensor networks and other applications
