Vector timestamps provide a way of recording the causal relationships between events in a distributed computation. We draw attention to a limitation of such timestamps when used t...
Distributed-system observation tools require an efficient data structure to store and query the partial-order of execution. Such data structures typically use vector timestamps to...
Abstract. Shared registers are basic objects used as communication mediums in asynchronous concurrent computation. A concurrent timestamp system is a higher typed communication obj...
Event tracing and monitoring of parallel applications are difficult if each processor has its own unsynchronized clock. A survey is given on several strategies to generate a glob...
