We address the weighted max-cut problem, or equivalently the problem of maximizing a quadratic form in n binary variables. If the underlying (symmetric) matrix is positive semidefinite of fixed rank d, then the problem can be reduced to searching the extre ...
Many reliable distributed systems are consensus-based and typically operate under two modes: a fast normal mode in failure-free periods, and a slower recovery mode following failures. A lot of work has been devoted to optimizing the normal mode, but little ...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for finding all common bases in two matroids. Our algorithm lists all common bases by using pivot operations in such a way that each basis appears exactly once. The time complexity of the algorithm is O(n(n^2+t)§) whe ...
This paper investigates the time-complexity of the non-blocking atomic commit (NBAC) problem in a synchronous distributed model where t out of n processes may fail by crashing. We exhibit for t > 3 an inherent trade-off between the fast abort property of N ...
This paper describes a new consensus algorithm for the asynchronous message passing system model augmented with an unreliable failure detector abstraction: channels are reliable, processes can fail by crashing, and the detection of crashes are not reliable ...
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 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 ...
