Awareness of the need for robustness in distributed systems increases as distributed systems become an integral part of day-to-day systems. Tolerating Byzantine faults and possessi...
Protocols which can tolerate any number of processors failing by ceasing operation for an unbounded number of steps and resuming operation (with or) without knowing that they were...
Abstract. We consider the problem of synchronizing clocks in synchronous systems prone to transient and dynamic process failures, i.e., we consider systems where all processes may ...
Consider a distributed network of n nodes that is connected to a global source of “beats”. All nodes receive the “beats” simultaneously, and operate in lock-step. A scheme ...
The advent of large scale multi-hop wireless networks highlights problems of fault tolerance and scale in distributed system, motivating designs that autonomously recover from tra...
