[PDF][PDF] A modular approach to fault-tolerant broadcasts and related problems

V Hadzilacos, S Toueg - 1994 - ecommons.cornell.edu
The design and verification of fault-tolerant distributed applications is widely viewed as a
complex endeavor. To a large extent this is due to the fact that the communication primitives …

Heartbeat: A timeout-free failure detector for quiescent reliable communication

M Kawazoe Aguilera, W Chen, S Toueg - Distributed Algorithms: 11th …, 1997 - Springer
We study the problem of achieving reliable communication with quiescent algorithms (ie,
algorithms that eventually stop sending messages) in asynchronous systems with process …

Indulgent algorithms (preliminary version)

R Guerraoui - Proceedings of the nineteenth annual ACM symposium …, 2000 - dl.acm.org
Informally, an indulgent algorithm is a distributed algorithm that tolerates unreliable failure
detection: the algorithm is indulgent towards its failure detector. This paper formally …

Using the heartbeat failure detector for quiescent reliable communication and consensus in partitionable networks

MK Aguilera, W Chen, S Toueg - Theoretical Computer Science, 1999 - Elsevier
We consider partitionable networks with process crashes and lossy links, and focus on the
problems of reliable communication and consensus for such networks. For both problems …

Revisiting the Paxos algorithm

R De Prisco, B Lampson, N Lynch - Distributed Algorithms: 11th …, 1997 - Springer
This paper develops a new I/O automaton model called the Clock General Timed Automaton
(Clock GTA) model. The Clock GTA is based on the General Timed Automaton (GTA) of …

Byzantine-resistant total ordering algorithms

LE Moser, PM Melliar-Smith - Information and Computation, 1999 - Elsevier
Multicast group communication protocols are used extensively in fault-tolerant distributed
systems. For many such protocols, the acknowledgments for individual messages define a …

J Yang, G Neiger, E Gafni - Proceedings of the seventeenth annual ACM …, 1998 - dl.acm.org
In a seminal paper, Chandra and Toueg showed how unreliable failure detectors could
allows processors to achieve consensus in asynchronous message passing systems. Since …

Revisiting the weakest failure detector for uniform reliable broadcast

M Kawazoe Aguilera, S Toueg, B Deianov - International Symposium on …, 1999 - Springer
Abstract Uniform Reliable Broadcast (URB) is a communication prim-itive that requires that if
a process delivers a message, then all correct processes also deliver this message. A recent …
