A Lazy Monitoring Approach for Heartbeat-Style Failure Detectors
—Failure detectors are a fundamental part of safe fault-tolerant distributed systems. Many failure detectors use heartbeats to draw conclusions about the state of nodes within a ...

Consensus in Anonymous Distributed Systems: Is There a Weakest Failure Detector?
: 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...

The weakest failure detector for solving k-set agreement
A failure detector is a distributed oracle that provides processes in a distributed system with hints about failures. The notion of a weakest failure detector captures the exact a...

On the Quality of Service of Crash-Recovery Failure Detectors
In this paper, we study and model a crash-recovery target and its failure detector’s probabilistic behavior. We extend Quality of Service (QoS) metrics to measure the recovery d...

On the Impossibility of Implementing Perpetual Failure Detectors in Partially Synchronous Systems
In this paper we study the implementability of different classes of failure detectors in several models of partial synchrony. We show that no failure detector with perpetual accur...
