The weakest failure detector for solving k-set agreement
A failure detector is a distributed oracle that provides processes in a distributed system with hints about failures. The notion of a weakest failure detector captures the exact a...

Consensus in Anonymous Distributed Systems: Is There a Weakest Failure Detector?
: 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...

The weakest failure detector for wait-free dining under eventual weak exclusion
Dining philosophers is a classic scheduling problem for local mutual exclusion on arbitrary conflict graphs. We establish necessary conditions to solve wait-free dining under even...

The Weakest Failure Detector for Solving Consensus
We determine what information about failures is necessary and sufficient to solve Consensus in asynchronous distributed systems subject to crash failures. In Chandra and Toueg [199...
