Group key exchange protocols allow a group of servers communicating over an asynchronous network of point-to-point links to establish a common key, such that an adversary which fu...
Abstract With n servers that independently fail with probability of p < 0.5, it is well known that the majority quorum system achieves the best availability among all quorum sys...
We propose a framework to translate certain subclasses of differential equation systems into distributed protocols that are practical. The synthesized protocols are state machine...
We present a low-cost, decentralized algorithm for ID management in distributed hash tables (DHTs) managed by a dynamic set of hosts. Each host is assigned an ID in the unit inter...
We study the problem of how resilient networks are to node faults. Specifically, we investigate the question of how many faults a network can sustain and still contain a large (i...
