We address the problem of the impossibility of implementing synchronous fault-tolerant service specifications in asynchronous distributed systems. We introduce a method for weaken...
The virtual synchrony model for group communication has proven to be a powerful paradigm for building distributed applications. In applications that use a large number of groups, ...
: This article describes the use of a service-oriented architecture to bridge the gap between different eLearning types and tools. The basic concept is a bi-directional distributio...
Failure detectors (or, more accurately Failure Suspectors { FS) appear to be a fundamental service upon which to build fault-tolerant, distributed applications. This paper shows t...
When time-triggered (TT) systems are to be deployed for large embedded real-time (RT) control systems in cars and airplanes, one way to overcome bandwidth limitations and achieve ...
