Barbara Liskov
Barbara Liskov (born November 7, 1939, as Barbara Jane Huberman) is an American computer scientist who has made pioneering contributions to programming languages and distributed computing.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Barbara Liskov
Byzantine fault
A Byzantine fault (also Byzantine generals problem, interactive consistency, source congruency, error avalanche, Byzantine agreement problem, and Byzantine failure) is a condition of a computer system, particularly distributed computing systems, where components may fail and there is imperfect information on whether a component has failed.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Byzantine fault
Collège de France
The, formerly known as the or as the Collège impérial founded in 1530 by François I, is a higher education and research establishment in France.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Collège de France
Computer scientist
A computer scientist is a scholar who specializes in the academic study of computer science.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Computer scientist
Concurrent computing
Concurrent computing is a form of computing in which several computations are executed concurrently—during overlapping time periods—instead of sequentially—with one completing before the next starts.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Concurrent computing
Consensus (computer science)
A fundamental problem in distributed computing and multi-agent systems is to achieve overall system reliability in the presence of a number of faulty processes.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Consensus (computer science)
Distributed computing
Distributed computing is a field of computer science that studies distributed systems, defined as computer systems whose inter-communicating components are located on different networked computers.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Distributed computing
Doctor of Philosophy
A Doctor of Philosophy (PhD or DPhil; philosophiae doctor or) is a terminal degree that usually denotes the highest level of academic achievement in a given discipline and is awarded following a course of graduate study and original research.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Doctor of Philosophy
Editor-in-chief
An editor-in-chief (EIC), also known as lead editor or chief editor, is a publication's editorial leader who has final responsibility for its operations and policies.
See Rachid Guerraoui and Editor-in-chief
Groupe des écoles des mines
The Groupe des écoles des mines (GEM) is a group of 8 Institut Mines-Telecom (IMT) engineering schools that are Grandes Écoles, a French institution of higher education that is separate from, but parallel and connected to the main framework of the French public university system.
