Active Disk Paxos with infinitely many processes - Chockler, Malkhi (2002)   (5 citations)  (Correct)

....of a consensus decision alone (safety) the difficulty is in guaranteeing progress in face of uncertainty regarding process failures. The usual approaches to circumventing Consensus impossibility include strengthening the basic model by assuming different degrees of synchrony (see e.g. [16, 17, 14]) augmenting the system with unreliable failure detectors [10] and employing randomization (see a survey in [13] Specifically, our solution uses one of the most widely deployed implementations of the state machine replication [30, 45] the Paxos algorithm [31, 32, 15, 34] At the core of Paxos ....

....in order to guarantee progress, it must eventually and for a sufficiently long time provide an exclusive leader. For many years, the distributed computing community identified various building blocks that guarantee such progress. The semi synchronous (likewise the timed asynchronous) model [14] does this by stipulating that the system goes through stability periods in which the system is synchronous, and that are long enough to elect a leader. The failure detectors approach initiated by Chandra and Toueg in [10] formally models the minimal conditions that guarantee that (eventually) a ....

Intrusion-Tolerant State Transfer For Group Communication Systems - Gupta (2003)   (Correct)

....system (IT GCS) used in the ITUA architecture is based on the following assumptions. System Model and Assumptions The IT GCS is based on a distributed system that consists of multiple hosts running several processes communicating over an unreliable network. The system is timed asynchronous [CF99] Specifically, it is asynchronous in the sense that it does not require the existence of upper bounds on message transmission and scheduling delays. However, processes have access to local hardware clocks (which need not be synchronized) Time outs are defined for message transmission and ....

....two membership protocols that have been designed by the Transis group. Congress provides a simple group membership protocol, while Moshe extends Congress to provide a full group communication service. Cristian [63] proposes three group membership specification for the timed asynchronous model [64] with three different consistency guarantees: group agreement, majority agreement, strict agreement. The group agreement represents a partitionable group membership specification and is described in the following. It is assumed that a unique service S is implemented by servers replicated on a ....

....of safety in a group membership determination by assuming a maximum speed for mobile nodes and, hence, incrementing D with an safety term D so as to take into account a worst case scenario. The group membership layer communication, atop of the proximity layer, is modeled as timed asynchronous [64]. This is because communication between nodes participating in group communication is not the same as the point to point communication at the proximity layer and, so, messages may have finite but unpredictable delays. The protocol proposed is based on the three round protocol described by [82] ....

.... timed model is the same as the set of runs of the algorithm using the failure detector in the failure detector model for partitionable systems [1] 1 Introduction In this paper we compare two distributed system models: 1) a variant of the timed asynchronous distributed system model [8], and 2) a variant [1] of the FLP model [14] that includes failure detectors and message omission failures. In this comparison we want to address several misconceptions about the two models. In particular, we want to show that 1) the timed asynchronous distributed system model (or, short the ....

The timed model [8] and the model of [1] are defined using different terminology and notation. In this paper we try to define a variant of the timed model (which does not support process recoveries) using a notation and terminology that is very similar to that of [1] In this way we can concentrate on the main ....

Therefore, property Strong Accuracy holds. VI. TIMED SYSTEMS In timed asynchronous distributed systems [8] (short: timed systems) there exists no upper bound on the transmission delay of messages nor on the execution times of protocols.

The protocol has to make sure that no up computer is suspected. Hence, a lease has to expire at the grantee before it expires at the granter. Hardware clocks ....

Enforcing Synchronous System Properties on Top of Timed Systems - Fetzer (2000)   Self-citation (Fetzer)   (Correct)

....Designer View Figure 1: The proposed transformation protocols provide the synchronous model properties on top of systems that can suffer performance and omission failures. By using a weaker system model, one can increase the coverage in comparison to the synchronous model. The timed model [4] is strictly weaker than the synchronous model. It permits an unbounded number of performance and omission failures. Consequently, the timed model does not guarantee that any operation can be performed in a timely fashion. Therefore, it is not a synchronous system model. Designers of distributed ....

Each noncrashed process has access to a local hardware clock a bounded drift rate. The value of is denoted 4 . Hardware clocks are not externally synchronized.

A process suffers a performance failure when it experiences a scheduling delay (see [8] for a precise meaning of that) greater than time units. Otherwise, is timely.

Synchronous systems are Mars [17] XPA [20] TTP [16] and the Advanced Automation System family [6] Fortress is designed to run in timed asynchronous distributed systems [8]. In timed systems each process has a local unsynchronized hardware clock with a bounded drift rate. However, there exists no a priori bound on the failure frequency. The services of Fortress are nevertheless defined using realtime deadlines. As long as the failure frequency is within a certain ....

The timewheel group communication system provides four unique characteristics that distinguish it from other group communication services [12, 8, 44, 52, 9, 3, 39, 4, 21, 50, 45, 19, 5, 7] First, this system has been designed for a timed asynchronous distributed system model [18]. Timed asynchronous distributed system model has been proposed recently. It allows the construction of dependable protocols that specify what outputs and state transitions should occur in response to inputs as well as a real time interval in which these outputs and state transition will occur. ....

Finally, Section 10 discusses some related issues and concludes the paper. 2 System Model The timed asynchronous system model [18] is the foundation of the timewheel group communication system. In this section we give a brief overview of the model, discuss the properties of this model, and then compare this model with the timely computing base (TCB) 51] and the approach taken by Hermant and Le Lann [32] 2.1 Assumptions A ....

That is, they vary with time, and they ....

By using appropriate fault tolerance mechanisms we can assume that the rejuvenation server can be made sufficiently reliable. 3 System and Failure Model We use a system model that is based on the timed model [2]. As described below, it provides the same message properties but stronger scheduling properties and clock properties. The use of stronger properties permits us to simplify the proofs of the protocols that we propose in this paper. However, these stronger conditions can be approximated in a timed ....
