QuickSilver (project)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The QuickSilver project at Cornell University was an AFRL-funded effort in the 2000s to build a platform in support of a new generation of scalable, secure, reliable distributed computing applications that were able to regenerate themselves after failure in order to be more resilient to cyber attacks.[1][2][3]

Among the partners on the project were DARPA funding under the SRS program, the United States Air Force (AFOSR), NSF International, Intel Corporation, and others.[1][2][3]

The principal investigators were Cornell Professors Kenneth P. Birman, Johannes Gehrke, and Paul Francis[citation needed]
