We present an implementation of the eventually perfect failure detector (♢ P) from the
original hierarchy of the Chandra-Toueg [3] oracles on an arbitrary partitionable network …

We present a wait-free solution to the generalized dining philosophers problem under
eventual weak exclusion in environments subject to crash faults. Wait-free dining …

Failure detectors have long been viewed as abstractions for the synchronism present in
distributed system models. However, investigations into the exact amount of synchronism …

Group membership is a fundamental building block that facilitates the development of fault-
tolerant systems. The specification of group membership in partitionable systems has not yet …

We present an implementation of an eventually perfect failure detector in an arbitrarily
connected, partitionable network. We assume ADD channels: for each one there exist …

The failure detector class Omega (Ω) provides an eventual leader election functionality, ie,
eventually all correct processes permanently trust the same correct process. An algorithm is …

Failure detectors are a service that provides (approximate) information about process
crashes in a distributed system. The well-known ldquoeventually perfectrdquo failure …

With Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), communication between mobile users is possible
without any infrastructure. MANETs are already a necessary part of wireless systems. Due to …

The lattice agreement problem is an important decision problem in distributed systems. It
has applications in implementing atomic snapshot objects and building a special class of …

A channel from a process p to a process q satisfies the ADD property if there are two
constants K and D, unknown to the processes, such that in any sequence of K consecutive …
