Awareness of the need for robustness in distributed systems increases as distributed systems become integral parts of day-to-day systems. Self-stabilizing while tolerating ongoing ...
This paper describes a group communication system called the timewheel group communication system that has been designed for a timed asynchronous distributed system model. The tim...
Abstract-- We propose a formal definition for the timed asynchronous distributed system model. We present extensive measurements of actual message and process scheduling delays and...
A connection management protocol establishes a connection between two hosts across a wide-area network to allow reliable message delivery. Following previous work of Kleinberg et a...
