Research Abstract |
The aim of this research project is to establish design methodology of dependable distributed software for mobile networks. We focused on two aspects of distributed software, distributed data management and distributed control, and considered design for dependability. 1. Dependable Shared Objects : Since shared objects are fundamentals of distributed systems for sharing distributed data, it is necessary to establish a design method for dependable shared objects in mobile networks. In this research project, we considered design methodology of dependable shared objects in mobile networks and obtained the followings. (1) We proposed a method for introducing self-stabilization into shared objects, which guarantees high adaptability to transient faults and mobility, (2) we proposed fault-tolerant protocols for broadcast and consensus, which are fundamentals for implementing shared objects, and (3) we proposed efficient methods for resource finding in dynamic networks. 2. Dependable Distributed Control : We considered dependable distributed control in mobile networks and obtained the followings. (1) We proposed protocols for controlling the number of mobile agents and their routings that succeed to attain high adaptability to mobility of mobile networks, (2) we proposed protocols for controlling the number of shared objects and their locations that succeed to attain high adaptability to mobility of mobile networks and (3) we proposed an effective method for designing and analyzing self-stabilizing protocols in mobile networks.
