Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Operating system
  • Computer network
  • Programming language

Lorenzo Alvisi mainly focuses on Distributed computing, Fault tolerance, Byzantine fault tolerance, Quantum Byzantine agreement and State machine replication. His Distributed computing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Consistency, Scalability, Computer network and Robustness. His Fault tolerance study incorporates themes from State and Language construct.

His research brings together the fields of Server and Byzantine fault tolerance. As a part of the same scientific family, Lorenzo Alvisi mostly works in the field of Quantum Byzantine agreement, focusing on Protocol and, on occasion, Shared memory and Computer data storage. In his study, Parameterized complexity is inextricably linked to Asynchronous communication, which falls within the broad field of State machine replication.

His most cited work include:

  • A survey of rollback-recovery protocols in message-passing systems (1646 citations)
  • Modeling the effect of technology trends on the soft error rate of combinational logic (1328 citations)
  • Zyzzyva: speculative byzantine fault tolerance (492 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Distributed computing, Fault tolerance, Server, Byzantine fault tolerance and Computer network. Lorenzo Alvisi has included themes like Consistency, Scalability and Protocol in his Distributed computing study. The study incorporates disciplines such as High availability, Debugging, Crash and Parallel computing in addition to Fault tolerance.

His studies deal with areas such as File server and Data integrity as well as Server. His research on Byzantine fault tolerance also deals with topics like

  • State machine replication which intersects with area such as Commit,
  • Computer security, which have a strong connection to The Internet. His work on Overhead as part of general Computer network research is often related to Upper and lower bounds, thus linking different fields of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Distributed computing (58.96%)
  • Fault tolerance (26.87%)
  • Server (21.64%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Distributed computing (58.96%)
  • Scalability (14.18%)
  • Computer security (14.18%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Distributed computing, Scalability, Computer security, Concurrency control and Distributed database. A large part of his Distributed computing studies is devoted to Distributed data store. His work focuses on many connections between Scalability and other disciplines, such as Leverage, that overlap with his field of interest in Telecommunications.

His study in the field of Adversary, Cryptographic protocol and Encryption also crosses realms of Social graph and Email encryption. His Cryptographic protocol research focuses on Overhead and how it relates to Plaintext, Server and Protocol. His work deals with themes such as Computer network, Commit, Online transaction processing and Oblivious ram, Cloud computing, which intersect with Concurrency control.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • SoK: The Evolution of Sybil Defense via Social Networks (132 citations)
  • Lazy Means Smart: Reducing Repair Bandwidth Costs in Erasure-coded Distributed Storage (52 citations)
  • I can't believe it's not causal! scalable causal consistency with no slowdown cascades (49 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Operating system
  • Computer network
  • Programming language

His primary scientific interests are in Distributed computing, Scalability, Computer security, Causal consistency and Concurrency control. His Distributed computing study which covers Operating system that intersects with Correctness. His Scalability research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Isolation, Database transaction, Atomicity and Workflow.

Many of his research projects under Computer security are closely connected to Social graph, Slowdown and Replica with Social graph, Slowdown and Replica, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Causal consistency studies intersect with other disciplines such as Thread, Weak consistency, Eventual consistency, Merge and Snapshot. His Concurrency control study frequently involves adjacent topics like Concurrency.
