Abstract. Failure is an ordinary characteristic of large-scale distributed environments. Resubmission is a general strategy employed to cope with failures in grids. Here, we analyt...
We introduce FTRepMI, a simple fault-tolerant protocol for providing sequential consistency amongst replicated objects in a grid, without using any centralized components. FTRepMI ...
