Javier S. Turek, Dennis E. Shasha • Computer
(1992)
Known results regarding consensus among processors are surveyed and related to practice. The ideas embodied in the various proofs are explained. The goal is to give practitioners some sense of the system hardware and software guarantees tha...

Flaviu Cristian, Christof W. Fetzer • IEEE International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing
(2002)
We propose a formal definition for the timed asynchronous distributed system model and we describe extensive measurements of actual message and process scheduling delays and hardware clock drifts that confirm that this model adequately desc...

Raja Sengupta • RePEc: Research Papers in Economics
(1999)
This paper discusses diagnosis problems in distributed systems within the context of a language-theoretic discrete event formalism. A distributed system is seen as a system with multiple spatially separated sites with each site having a dia...

Michael P. Polis, Raymond E. Goodson • Proceedings of the IEEE
(1976)
This paper surveys the distributed system parameter identification problem and concludes that it can be treated as a series of largely independent subproblems, each of which must be considered in any attempt to treat the problem in applicat...

Ken Birman, Thomas Joseph • ACM eBooks
(1990)
Techniques are examined for replicating data and execution in directly distributed systems: systems in which multiple processes interact directly with one another while continuously respecting constraints on their joint behavior. Directly d...
