Optimal Agreement in a Scale-Free Network Environment
Generally, the task in a distributed system must achieve an agreement. It requires a set of processors to agree on a common value even if some components are corrupted. There are s...

Possibility and Impossibility Results in a Shared Memory Environment
We focus on unreliable asynchronous shared memory model which support only atomic read and write operations. For such a model we provide a necessary condition for the solvability ...
