Heartbeat: A Timeout-Free Failure Detector for Quiescent Reliable Communication
Abstract. We study the problem of achieving reliable communication with quiescent algorithms (i.e., algorithms that eventually stop sending messages) in asynchronous systems with p...

Visiting Gafni's Reduction Land: From the BG Simulation to the Extended BG Simulation
: The Borowsky-Gafni (BG) simulation algorithm is a powerful tool that allows a set of t + 1 asynchronous sequential processes to wait-free simulate (i.e., despite the crash of up ...
