This paper investigates the two main and seemingly antagonistic approaches to broadcasting messages in fault-tolerant distributed systems: the approach based on Reliable Broadcast, and the one based on View Synchronous Communication (or VSC for short). We ...
Distributed systems are the basis of widespread computing facilities enabling many of our daily life activities. Telebanking, electronic commerce, online booking-reservation, and telecommunication are examples of common services that rely on distributed sy ...
Open Multithreaded Transactions form an advanced transaction model that provides features for controlling and structuring not only accesses to objects, as usual in transaction systems, but also threads taking part in transactions. The model allows several ...
Atomic broadcast primitives are often proposed as a mechanism to allow fault-tolerant cooperation between sites in a distributed system. Unfortunately, the delay incurred before a message can be delivered makes it difficult to implement high performance, s ...
We study the distributed infrastructures required for location-independent communication between mobile agents. These infrastructures are problematic: different applications may have very different patterns of migration and communication, and require diffe ...
The Paxos part-time parliament protocol of Lamport provides a non trivial but very practical way to implement fault-tolerant deterministic services over a distributed message passing system. This paper deconstructs Paxos and modularly reconstructs more res ...
Distributed dats bases and data replication are recognised today as an efficient way to increase availability and fiability in data bases. The problem of mutual co-herence of copies is however introduced. Updating data is to be done on all copies. The noti ...
Although transactional models have proved to be very useful for numerous applications, the development of new models to reflect the ever-increasing complexity and diversity of modern applications is a very active area of research. Analysis of the existing ...
Data replication is an increasingly important topic as databases are more and more deployed over clusters of workstations. One of the challenges in database replication is to introduce replication without severely affecting performance. Because of this dif ...
