Consensus is known to be a fundamental problem in fault-tolerant distributed systems. Solving this problem provides the means for distributed processes to agree on a single value....
— This paper describes the design and implementation of a novel reliable multicast protocol, totally reliable and scalable to large number of receivers. MAF relies on Active Netw...
This paper presents a scalable leader election protocol for large process groups with a weak membership requirement. The underlying network is assumed to be unreliable but characte...

Abstract: We present a new algorithm for automatic test generation for multicast routing. Our algorithm processes a nite state machine (FSM) model of the protocol and uses a mix of...
: Weak-consistency replication protocols can be used to build wide-area services that are scalable, fault-tolerant, and useful for mobile computer systems. We have evaluated the ti...
