Research The goal of my research is to investigate ways of building highly dependable and secure distributed systems. Over the past several years, my focus has evolved from building fault tolerance systems using reliable group communication toolkits, to the integration of replication and transaction processing, to state machine replication based on the Paxos algorithm, and to Byzantine fault tolerance. Very recently, I started to investigate alternative approaches towards intrusion-tolerant systems that can withstand both hardware failures and malicious attacks.
