Minimal System Conditions to Implement Unreliable Failure Detectors
In this paper we explore the minimal system requirements to implement unreliable failure detectors. We first consider systems formed by lossy asynchronous and eventually timely l...

Failure Resilience for Device Drivers
Studies have shown that device drivers and extensions contain 3–7 times more bugs than other operating system code and thus are more likely to fail. Therefore, we present a fail...

Efficient Protocols for Computing the Optimal Swap Edges of a Shortest Path Tree
We consider the problem of computing the optimal swap edges of a shortest-path tree. This theoretical problem arises in practice in systems that offer point-offailure shortest-path...

Mobile Agent Fault Tolerance for Information Retrieval Applications: An Exception Handling Approach
Maintaining mobile agent availability in the presence of agent server crashes is a challenging issue since developers normally have no control over remote agent servers. A popular...
