This article introduces and explores the condition-based approach to solve the consensus problem in asynchronous systems. The approach studies conditions that identify sets of inpu...
ÐIn this paper, we investigate the k-set consensus problem in asynchronous distributed systems. In this problem, each participating process begins the protocol with an input value...

A distributed consensus algorithm allows n processes to reach a common decision value starting from individual inputs. Wait-free consensus, in which a process always terminates wi...
Conditions on a shared object type T are given that are both necessary and sufficient for wait-free n-process consensus to be solvable using objects of type T and registers. The co...
Abstract. To cope with the impossibility of solving agreement problems in asynchronous systems made up of n processes and prone to t process crashes, system designers tailor their ...
