The counting pyramid: an adaptive distributed counting scheme
A distributed counter is a concurrent object which provides a fetch-and-increment operation on a shared value. On the basis of a distributed counter, one can implement various fun...

The Derivation of Distributed Termination Detection Algorithms from Garbage Collection Schemes
It is shown that the terminationdetection problem for distributed computations can be modeled as an instance of the garbage collection problem. Consequently, algorithms for the te...
