Failure detectors are commonly viewed as abstractions for the synchronism present in distributed system models. However, investigations into the exact amount of synchronism encapsu...

We investigate whether asynchronous computational models and asynchronous algorithms can be considered for designing real-time distributed fault-tolerant systems. A priori, the lac...

Nowadays, there are many protocols able to cope with process crashes, but, unfortunately, a process crash represents only a particular faulty behavior. Handling tougher failures (...

Failure detectors (or, more accurately Failure Suspectors { FS) appear to be a fundamental service upon which to build fault-tolerant, distributed applications. This paper shows t...

We present fault detectors for transient faults, (i.e. corruptions of the memory of the processors, but not of the code of the processors). We distinguish fault detectors for tasks...

The concept of unreliable failure detector was introduced by Chandra and Toueg [2] as a mechanism that provides information about process failures. Depending on the properties the...

Abstract. We give a process calculus model that formalizes a wellknown algorithm (introduced by Chandra and Toueg) solving consensus in the presence of a particular class of failur...
