This paper describes the analysis, implementation and performance of a new algorithm engineered to discipline a computer clock to a source of standard time, such as a GPS receiver...
Real-time event stream processing (RT-ESP) applications must synchronize continuous data streams despite fluctuations in resource availability. Satisfying these needs of RT-ESP ap...

A distributed protocol is proposed for the synchronization of real-time tasks that have variable resource requirements. The protocol is simple to implement and is intended for lar...
A quorum system is a collection of sets (quorums) of servers, where any two quorums intersect. Quorumbased protocols underly modern edge-computing architectures and throughput-sca...
