Aragog: Scalable Runtime Verification of Shardable Networked Systems An efficient invariant checker for network protocols.
Pegasus: Tolerating Skewed Workloads in Distributed Storage with In-Network Coherence Directories A clever research paper describing a rack-sized distributed KV store.
Two attempts to compare a TLA+ spec with a C++ implementation At MongoDB we tried two methods to test that a spec matches the code: one worked, one didn't. We explain our results in a VLDB 2020 paper.
