Total order broadcast and multicast (also called atomic broadcast/multicast) present an
important problem in distributed systems, especially with respect to fault-tolerance. In short …

State machine replication (SMR) is a well-known technique able to provide fault-tolerance.
SMR consists of sequencing client requests and executing them against replicas in the …

Software aging phenomena have been recently studied; one particularly complex type is
shared memory pool latch contention in large OLTP servers. Latch contention onset leads to …

State-machine replication, a fundamental approach to fault tolerance, requires replicas to
execute commands deterministically, which usually results in sequential execution of …

A distributed database utilizing the wide-spread edge computing servers to provide low-
latency data access with the serializability guarantee is highly desirable for emerging edge …

This paper investigates the use of partial replication in the Database State Machine
approach introduced earlier for fully replicated databases. It builds on the order and …

Replication techniques are widely applied in and for cloud to improve scalability and
availability. In such context, the well-understood problem is how to guarantee consistency …

Many current online services are deployed over geographically distributed sites (ie,
datacenters). Such distributed services call for geo-replicated storage, that is, storage …

In this paper, we study the atomic broadcast and multicast problems, two fundamental
abstractions for building fault-tolerant systems. As opposed to atomic broadcast, atomic …

The ordering of events is a fundamental problem of distributed computing and has been
extensively studied over several decades. From all the available orderings, total ordering is …
