Consensus is known to be a fundamental problem in fault-tolerant distributed systems. Solving this problem provides the means for distributed processes to agree on a single value....
This paper presents a new conceptual model, the XBWModel. Distributed computing is becoming a cost effective way to implement safety critical control systems. To support the devel...
The Amoeba group communication system has two unique aspects: (1) it uses a sequencer-based protocol with negative acknowledgements for achieving a total order on all group messag...
Abstract Until now, the analysis of fault tolerance of peerto-peer systems usually only covers random faults of some kind. Contrary to traditional algorithmic research, faults as w...
This paper presents Worm-IT, a new intrusion-tolerant group communication system with a membership service and a view-synchronous atomic multicast primitive. The system is intrusi...
