In this paper, we present an asynchronous consistent global checkpoint collection algorithm which prevents contention for network storage at the file server and hence reduces the...
The memory consistency model in parallel programming controls the order in which operations performed by one thread may be observed by another. Language designers have been reluct...
Clock-related operations are one of the many sources of replica non-determinism and of replica inconsistency in fault-tolerant distributed systems. In passive replication, if the ...

In this paper we present an algorithm that can be used to implement sequential, causal, or cache consistency in distributed shared memory (DSM) systems. For this purpose it has a ...
We introduce dag consistency, a relaxed consistency model for distributed shared memory which is suitable for multithreaded programming. We have implemented dag consistency in sof...
