: This paper is on failure detectors to solve the consensus problem in asynchronous systems made up of anonymous processes prone to crash and connected by asynchronous reliable cha...
: Weprove tight bounds on the time needed to solve k-set agreement, a natural generalization of consensus. We analyze this problem in a synchronous, message-passing model where pro...

This paper shows that, in an environment where we do not bound the number of faulty processes, the class P of Perfect failure detectors is the weakest (among realistic failure det...
This paper defines the basic notions of local and non-local tasks, and determines the minimum information about failures that is necessary to solve any non-local task in message-p...
