The Weakest Failure Detector for Solving Consensus
We determine what information about failures is necessary and sufficient to solve Consensus in asynchronous distributed systems subject to crash failures. In Chandra and Toueg [199...

Fail-Aware Failure Detectors
In existing asynchronous distributed systems it is impossible to implement failure detectors which are perfect, i.e. they only suspect crashed processes and eventually suspect all...

Consensus in Asynchronous Distributed Systems: A Concise Guided Tour
Abstract. It is now recognized that the Consensus problem is a fundamental problem when one has to design and implement reliable asynchronous distributed systems. This chapter is o...

On k-Set Consensus Problems in Asynchronous Systems
ÐIn this paper, we investigate the k-set consensus problem in asynchronous distributed systems. In this problem, each participating process begins the protocol with an input value...

Reliable Broadcast in a Computational Hybrid Model with Byzantine Faults, Crashes, and Recoveries
This paper presents a formal model for asynchronous distributed systems with servers that may exhibit Byzantine faults or crash and subsequently recover. The model is computationa...
