Brief Announcement: Failure Detectors Encapsulate Fairness
Abstract. We argue that failure detectors encapsulate fairness. Fairness is a measure of the number of steps a process takes relative to another processes and/or messages in transi...

Revisiting Failure Detection and Consensus in Omission Failure Environments
It has recently been shown that fair exchange, a security problem in distributed systems, can be reduced to a fault tolerance problem, namely a special form of distributed consensu...

Optimal control of LTI systems over unreliable communication links
In this paper, optimal control of linear time-invariant (LTI) systems over unreliable communication links is studied. The motivation of the problem comes from growing applications...

The weakest failure detectors to boost obstruction-freedom
This paper determines necessary and sufficient conditions to implement wait-free and non-blocking contention managers in a shared memory system. The necessary conditions hold even...

A Fault Detection Service for Wide Area Distributed Computations
The potential for faults in distributed computing systems is a significant complicating factor for application developers. While a variety of techniques exist for detecting and co...
