The Overhead of Indulgent Failure Recovery

Rachid Guerraoui, Partha Dutta

Many reliable distributed systems are consensus-based and typically operate under two modes: a fast normal mode in failure-free synchronous periods, and a slower recovery mode following asynchrony and failures. A lot of work has been devoted to optimize th ...

Time-complexity bounds on agreement problems

Partha Dutta

In many distributed systems, designing an application that maintains consistency and availability despite failure of processes, involves solving some form of agreement. Not surprisingly, providing efficient agreement algorithms is critical for improving th ...

Total Order Broadcast and Multicast Algorithms: Taxonomy and Survey

André Schiper, Xavier Défago

Total order broadcast and multicast (also called atomic broadcast/multicast) present an important problem in distributed systems, especially with respect to fault-tolerance. In short, the primitive ensures that messages sent to a set of processes are, in t ...

Semi-passive replication and Lazy Consensus

André Schiper, Xavier Défago

This paper presents two main contributions: semi-passive replication and Lazy Consensus. The former is a replication technique with parsimonious processing. It is based on the latter; a variant of Consensus allowing the lazy evaluation of proposed values. ...

Evaluating the performance of distributed agreement algorithms

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 ...

Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking: The P-Grid System and its Applications

Karl Aberer, Manfred Hauswirth, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Anwitaman Datta, Roman Schmidt, Jie Wu, Zoran Despotovic

The limitations of client/server systems become evident in an Internet-scale distributed environment. Peer-topeer (P2P) systems offer an interesting alternative to traditional client/server systems: Every node acts both as a client and a server and “ ...

Replicated Invocation

André Schiper, Stefan Pleisch, Arnas Kupsys

In today's systems, application are composed from various components that may be located on different machines. The components may have to collaborate in order to service a client request. More specifically, a client request to one component may trigger a ...
