—In sufficiently large heterogeneous overlays message loss and delays are likely to occur. This has a significant impact on overlay routing, especially on longer paths. The exi...

—Network Tomography (or network monitoring) uses end-to-end path-level measurements to characterize the network, such as topology estimation and failure detection. This work prov...
Group communication primitives have broad utility as building blocks for distributed applications. The challenge is to create and maintain the distributed structures that support ...

—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 ...

We study communication complexity of consensus in synchronous message-passing systems with processes prone to crashes. The goal in the consensus problem is to have all the nonfaul...
