Per-flow network measurement at Internet backbone links requires the efficient maintanence of large arrays of statistics counters at very high speeds (e.g. 40 Gb/s). The prevailin...
Three protocols for gossip-based failure detection services in large-scale heterogeneous clusters are analyzed and compared. The basic gossip protocol provides a means by which fai...
