We investigate issues related to the probe complexity of the And-Or quorum system and its implementation in a dynamic environment. Our contribution is twofold: We first analyze th...
A quorum system is a family of sets (themselves called quorums), each pair of which intersect. In many distributed algorithms, the basic unit accessed by a client is a quorum of n...

Quorum protocols offer several benefits when used to maintain replicated data but techniques for reducing overheads associated with them have not been explored in detail. It is d...

We consider efficient real-time communication mechanisms for applications in unreliable and partitionable networks, where network partitions can occur unpredictably and nodes can ...
