Timeliness, failure-detectors, and consensus performance
We study the implication that various timeliness and failure detector assumptions have on the performance of consensus algorithms that exploit them. We present a general framework...

Fast Asynchronous Uniform Consensus in Real-Time Distributed Systems
We investigate whether asynchronous computational models and asynchronous algorithms can be considered for designing real-time distributed fault-tolerant systems. A priori, the lac...

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...

Performance Tuning of Failure Detectors in Wireless Ad-hoc Networks: Modelling and Experiments
Abstract. We consider wireless ad-hoc networks and implement failure detections mechanisms. These failure detectors provide elementary information for high level distributed algori...

A Simple and Fast Asynchronous Consensus Protocol Based on a Weak Failure Detector
or fault-tolerant asynchronous systems. It abstracts a family of problems known as Agreement (or Coordination) problems. Any solution to consensus can serve as a basic building blo...
