A modular approach to shared-memory consensus, with applications to the probabilistic-write model
We define two new classes of shared-memory objects: ratifiers, which detect agreement, and conciliators, which ensure agreement with some probability. We show that consensus can...

Phase transitions in the neuropercolation model of neural populations with mixed local and non-local interactions
Abstract We model the dynamical behavior of the neuropil, the densely interconnected neural tissue in the cortex, using neuropercolation approach. Neuropercolation generalizes phas...
