This article introduces and explores the condition-based approach to solve the consensus problem in asynchronous systems. The approach studies conditions that identify sets of inpu...
This paper proposes a methodology for designing a class of algorithms for computing functions in dynamic distributed systems in which communication channels and processes may ceas...
Suppose that some parties are connected by an incomplete network of reliable and private channels. The parties cooperate to execute some protocol. However, the parties are curious...
Future Internet services will have vastly different requirements than the current Internet. Manageability, which has been largely ignored, will have the dual role of controlling ca...
: A distributed system is scalable if the rate at which it completes its computation and communication tasks does not depend on its size. As an example, the scalability of a peer-t...
