This paper develops some control structures suitable for composing fault-tolerant distrib uted applications using atomic actions (atomic transactions) as building blocks, and then...
Wireless sensor networks face acute security concerns in applications such as battlefield monitoring. A central point of failure in a sensor network is the base station, which act...
: A general purpose group communication protocol suite called Newtop is described. It is assumed that processes can simultaneously belong to many groups, group size could be large,...
Byzantine fault tolerant systems behave correctly when no more than f out of 3f + 1 replicas fail. When there are more than f failures, traditional BFT protocols make no guarantee...
In this paper we propose a test compaction method for path delay faults in a logic circuit. The method generates a compact set of two-pattern tests for faults on long paths select...
