ABSTRACT: This work considers the problem of performing a set of N tasks on a set of P cooperating message-passing processors (P N). The processors use a group communication servi...
We study the implication that various timeliness and failure detector assumptions have on the performance of consensus algorithms that exploit them. We present a general framework...
Abstract. The Real-Time Calculus (RTC) [16] is a framework to analyze heterogeneous real-time systems that process event streams of data. The streams are characterized by pairs of ...
Consider a scenario where an l-bit secret has been distributed among n players by an honest dealer using some secret sharing scheme. Then, if all players behave honestly, the secre...
This paper addresses a constrained two-terminal reliability measure referred to as Distance Reliability (DR) between the source node u and the destination node I with the shortest...
