Handling message semantics with Generic Broadcast protocols
Message ordering is a fundamental abstraction in distributed systems. However, ordering guarantees are usually purely "syntactic," that is, message "semantics" ...

Causality tracking in causal message-logging protocols
Abstract. Casual message-logging protocols have several attractive properties: they introduce no blocking, send no additional messages over those sent by the application, and never...

Restoration by path concatenation: fast recovery of MPLS paths
A new general theory about restoration of network paths is first introduced. The theory pertains to restoration of shortest paths in a network following failure, e.g., we prove th...

A family of optimal termination detection algorithms
An important problem in distributed systems is to detect termination of a distributed computation. A computation is said to have terminated when all processes have become passive a...
