Bruce Ellis Born 1960, nicknamed Brucee was a computer scientist at Bell Labs during the 1980s and 90s. He was educated at the University of Sydney, Australia, where he earned First Class Honours with the University Medal. He worked there on the Basser branch of Unix 32V. This work continued at Bell Labs where he was involved in the development of the later research versions of Unix , software for the Blit computer terminal Blit terminal, the Plan 9 from Bell Labs and Inferno operating system Inferno operating systems, as well as ventures into network processing the Froggie . Recreationally he has also dabbled with computer go , computational linguistics , and with Rob Pike was responsible for the infamous Mark V Shaney in the early 1980s. After leaving Bell Labs he has been consulting and lecturing around the world while working on the OzInferno operating system as a continuation of the work he had done on the research version of Inferno. He is currently living in Sydney. Other works of his include the mash shell, 64 bit support for the Plan 9 crosscompilers suite, and various PostScript interpreters currently used by commercial printer manufacturers.

No footnotes date March 2010 A Warhol worm is an extremely rapidly propagating computer worm that spreads as fast as physically possible, infecting all vulnerable machines on the entire Internet in 15 minutes or less. The term is based on Andy Warhol s remark that Fifteen minutes of fame In the future, everyone will have 15 minutes of fame . The analysis was extended by Stuart Staniford to create the flash worm concept. More information on these concepts is in How to 0wn the Internet in your Spare Time by Staniford, Paxson, and Weaver appeared in Usenix Security 2002 . The SQL Slammer worm was the first observed example of a Warhol worm. The mechanism of SQL Slammer s spread used a pseudo random number generator seeded from a system variable to determine which IP address es to attack next. In spite of deficiencies in its implementation, the randomized attack was highly effective. According to a Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis CAIDA coordinated analysis of the SQL Slammer outbreak, its growth followed an exponential growth exponential curve with a doubling time of 8.5 seconds in the early phases of the attack, which was only slowed by the collapse of many networks because of the denial of service caused by SQL Slammer s traffic. 90 of all vulnerable machines were infected within 10 minutes, showing that the original estimate for infection speed was roughly correct.

This idea is extremely useful in constructing non blocking synchronization algorithms.

Image with unknown copyright status removed Image algorithm.gif Without the use of type stable memory, the pointer p may incorrectly point to something of a different type.
