An efficient failure-resilient mutual exclusion algorithm for distributed systems leveraging a novel zero-message overlay structure by Mouna Rabhi (17086969)

“…The proposed algorithm overcomes these limitations by providing an effective solution to maintain a logarithmic cost in case of node failures. The overlay structure – a unique logical tree – used to control access to the critical section maintains its consistency even when nodes fail. …”

Multicast at Edge: An Edge Network Architecture for Service-Less Crowdsourced Live Video Multicast by Kamran Zahoor (16896354)

“…In this paper, we propose an overlay network architecture to augment eMBMS to address the limitations of the standard eMBMS architecture and enable service-less multicast for crowdsourced live video providers. …”
