Peter Urban, Xavier Defago and Andre Schiper: Chasing the FLP Impossibility Result in a LAN or How Robust Can a Fault Tolerant Server Be? Keywords: replication, atomic broadcast, consensus, measurements, robustness, high load, LAN, FLP impossibility Abstra ...
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 ...
Fault tolerance can be achieved in distributed systems by replication. However, Fischer, Lynch and Paterson have proven an impossibility result about consensus in the asynchronous system model. Similar impossibility results have been established for atomic ...

Due to their nature, distributed systems are vulnerable to failures of some of their parts. Conversely, distribution also provides a way to increase the fault tolerance of the overall system. However, achieving fault tolerance is not a simple problem and r ...
A distributed algorithm comprises a collection of sequential-code entities, which are spread over different computers connected to a network. The process of designing a distributed algorithm is influenced by the assumptions we make on the computational env ...
Nowadays, networked computers are present in most aspects of everyday life. Moreover, essential parts of society come to depend on distributed systems formed of networked computers, thus making such systems secure and fault tolerant is a top priority. If t ...

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 ...
This paper extends the failure detector approach from crash-stop failures to muteness failures. Muteness failures are malicious failures in which a process stops sending algorithm messages, but might continue to send other messages, e.g., ``I am alive'' me ...
