A Fault-Tolerant Token based Atomic Broadcast Algorithm

André Schiper, Nils Richard Ekwall

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 and none of ...

Trustful Cumulus Clouds

Rachid Guerraoui, Maysam Yabandeh

Cloud computing offers an appealing business model and it is tempting for companies to delegate their IT services to the cloud. Yet, a company might ﬁnd it risky to do so for sensible services and to depend entirely on a single provider, which can be vulne ...

A formal approach to fault tolerant distributed consensus

Rachele Fuzzati

The term distributed Consensus denotes the problem of getting a certain number of processes, that could be far away from each other and that exchange messages through some communication means, to all agree on the same value. This problem has been proved im ...

Atomic broadcast

Nils Richard Ekwall

Within only a couple of generations, the so-called digital revolution has taken the world by storm: today, almost all human beings interact, directly or indirectly, at some point in their life, with a computer system. Computers are present on our desks, co ...

Modeling and validating the performance of atomic broadcast algorithms in high-latency networks

André Schiper, Nils Richard Ekwall

The performance of consensus and atomic broadcast algorithms using failure detectors is often affected by a trade-off between the number of communication steps and the number of messages needed to reach a decision. In this paper, we model the performance o ...

$ H _{ 2 } $ O: Reversible Hexagonal-Orthogonal Grid Conversion by 1-D Filtering

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

In this work, we propose a new grid conversion algorithm between the hexagonal lattice and the orthogonal (a.k.a. Cartesian) lattice. The conversion process, named

The Time-Complexity of Local Decision in Distributed Agreement

Rachid Guerraoui, Bastian Pochon, Partha Dutta

Agreement is at the heart of distributed computing. In its simple form, it requires a set of processes to decide on a common value out of the values they propose. The time-complexity of distributed agreement problems is generally measured in terms of the n ...

Comparing Atomic Broadcast Algorithms in High Latency Networks

André Schiper, Nils Richard Ekwall

Since the introduction of the concept of failure detectors, several consensus and atomic broadcast algorithms based on these detectors have been published. The performance of these algorithms is often affected by a trade-off between the number of communica ...

ODPOP: An algorithm for Open/Distributed Constraint Optimization

Boi Faltings, Adrian Petcu

We propose ODPOP, a new distributed algorithm for \textit{open multiagent combinatorial optimization} \cite{Faltings2005c}. The ODOP algorithm explores the same search space as the dynamic programming algorithm DPOP~\cite{Petcu2005} or the AND/OR search al ...

Token-based Atomic Broadcast using Unreliable Failure Detectors

André Schiper, Nils Richard Ekwall

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 ...
