We investigate issues related to the probe complexity of the And-Or quorum system and its implementation in a dynamic environment. Our contribution is twofold: We first analyze th...
This paper investigates the power mode management problem for an IEEE 802.11-based mobile ad hoc network (MANET) that allows mobile hosts to tune to the power-saving (PS) mode. The...
— Mutual exclusion is one of the well-studied fundamental primitives in distributed systems. However, the emerging P2P systems bring forward several challenges that can’t be co...
Byzantine quorum systems [13] enhance the availability and efficiency of fault-tolerant replicated services when servers may suffer Byzantine failures. An important limitation of...
