Fail-Aware Failure Detectors
In existing asynchronous distributed systems it is impossible to implement failure detectors which are perfect, i.e. they only suspect crashed processes and eventually suspect all...

An Unreliable Failure Detector for Unknown and Mobile Networks
This paper presents an asynchronous implementation of a failure detector for unknown and mobile networks. Our approach does not rely on timers. Neither the composition nor the numb...

Failure Detection and Randomization: A Hybrid Approach to Solve Consensus
We present a consensus algorithm that combines unreliable failure detection and randomization, two well-known techniques for solving consensus in asynchronous systems with crash f...

Brief Announcement: Failure Detectors Encapsulate Fairness
Abstract. We argue that failure detectors encapsulate fairness. Fairness is a measure of the number of steps a process takes relative to another processes and/or messages in transi...

From Crash-Stop to Permanent Omission: Automatic Transformation and Weakest Failure Detectors
Abstract. This paper studies the impact of omission failures on asynchronous distributed systems with crash-stop failures. We provide two different transformations for algorithms,...
