: This paper is on failure detectors to solve the consensus problem in asynchronous systems made up of anonymous processes prone to crash and connected by asynchronous reliable cha...
In existing asynchronous distributed systems it is impossible to implement failure detectors which are perfect, i.e. they only suspect crashed processes and eventually suspect all...
In mobile environment, nodes can move around and voluntarily leave or join the network. Furthermore, they can crash or be disconnected from the network due to the absence of netwo...

We study the implication that various timeliness and failure detector assumptions have on the performance of consensus algorithms that exploit them. We present a general framework...
Abstract: Due the multiplicity of loci of control, a main issue distributed systems have to cope with lies in the uncertainty on the system state created by the adversaries that ar...
