A crashing network protocol is an asynchronous protocol whose memory does not survive crashes. We show that a crashing network protocol that works over unreliable links can be driv...
This paper presents a generic methodology to transform a protocol resilient to process crashes into one resilient to arbitrary failures in the case where processes run the same te...
Protocols that solve agreement problems are essential building blocks for fault tolerant distributed systems. While many protocols have been published, little has been done to ana...
Fault tolerance schemes for mobile agents to survive agent server crash failures are complex since developers normally have no control over remote agent servers. Some solutions mo...
Failure detectors are a service that provides (approximate) information about process crashes in a distributed system. The well-known “eventually perfect” failure detector, 3P...
