Many atomic broadcast algorithms have been published in the last twenty years. Token-based algorithms represent a large class of these algorithms. Interestingly, all the token-based atomic broadcast algorithms rely on a group membership service, i.e., none ...
Comparing the Performance of Two Consensus Algorithms with Centralized and Decentralized Communication Schemes Peter Urban and Andre Schiper Protocols that solve agreement problems are essential building blocks for fault tolerant distributed systems. While ...
Database replication protocols based on group communication primitives have recently emerged as a promising technology to improve database fault-tolerance and performance. Roughly speaking, this approach consists in exploiting the order and atomicity prope ...

In order to increase flexibility and reduce complexity, the use of distributed platforms such as CORBA for building complex distributed systems is growing significantly. Although CORBA platforms provide a better support than conventional RPC mechanisms for ...
The performance of the consensus algorithm running on FDDI N. Sergent This paper presents an application of Hierarchical Coloured Timed Petri Nets to the modelling and the performance evaluation of a distributed consensus algorithm. We took a top down modu ...
Leasing is a very effective way to improve the performance of distributed algorithms without hampering their fault-tolerance. The notion of lease has traditionally been defined using a global notion of time and was hence strongly tied to synchronous system ...
