The University of Illinois was awarded a $250,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Computer and Network Systems. The grant falls under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070), which supports investigator-initiated research and education in computing, communications, and information science and engineering. The three-year grant will fund research titled "A New Framework for Building Fail-Slow Fault-Tolerant Distributed Systems." The University will collaborate with other institutions to develop techniques and tools allowing distributed systems to continue operating, albeit in a degraded state, when component failures occur. The research is expected to enable the construction of more resilient distributed applications and services. The grant period runs from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2024, with all work taking place at the University's campus in Urbana, Illinois.
