Current cluster architectures provide the ideal environment to run federations of main-memory database systems (FMMDBs). In FMMDBs, data resides in the main memory of the federation servers, significantly improving performance by avoiding I/O during the ex ...
Database replication protocols have historically been built on top of distributed database systems, and have consequently been designed and implemented using distributed transactional mechanisms, such as atomic commitment. We present the Database State Mac ...
This paper addresses the question of the weakest failure detector for solving the Non-Blocking Atomic Commit problem (NBAC) in a message passing system where processes can fail by crashing. We define a failure detector, denoted by X, which we show to be su ...
This note gives a high level and informal account of the necessary part of the proof that Ω is the weakest failure detector to implement consensus with a majority of correct processes. The proof originally appeared in a widely cited but rarely understood p ...
Spectroscopic, photochemical and biological properties of indocyanine green (ICG) are presented. Light over 800 nm is effectively absorbed by ICG. This property as well as photochemical behaviour of ICG make it a very suitable dye for photodynamic treatmen ...

We introduce quittable consensus, a natural variation of the consensus problem, where processes have the option to agree on “quit” if failures occur, and we relate this problem to the well-known problem of non-blocking atomic commit. We then determine the ...
Recent papers [GK03,HT03] define the weakest failure detector for solving the Non-Blocking Atomic Commit problem (NBAC) in a message passing system where processes can fail by crashing and a majority of processes never crash. In this paper, we generalize t ...
The fair exchange problem is key to trading electronic items in systems of mutually untrusted parties.We consider modern variants of such systems where each party is equipped with a tamper proof security module. The security modules trust each other but ca ...
This paper addresses the question of the weakest failure detector to solve the Non-Blocking Atomic Commit (NBAC) problem in an asynchronous system. We define the set A of timeless failure detectors which excludes detectors that provide information about gl ...
