The Weakest Failure Detector for Solving Consensus
, 1996
"... We determine what information about failures is necessary and sufficient to solve Consensus in asynchronous distributed systems subject to crash failures. In [CT91], it is shown that 3W, a failure detector that provides surprisingly little information about which processes have crashed, is sufficien ..."

We determine what information about failures is necessary and sufficient to solve Consensus in asynchronous distributed systems subject to crash failures. In [CT91], it is shown that 3W, a failure detector that provides surprisingly little information about which processes have crashed
Unreliable Failure Detectors for Reliable Distributed Systems
- Journal of the ACM
, 1996
"... We introduce the concept of unreliable failure detectors and study how they can be used to solve Consensus in asynchronous systems with crash failures. We characterise unreliable failure detectors in terms of two properties — completeness and accuracy. We show that Consensus can be solved even with ..."

The failure detector abstraction
"... A failure detector is a fundamental abstraction in distributed computing. This paper surveys this abstraction through two dimensions. First we study failure detectors as building blocks to simplify the design of reliable distributed algorithms. In particular, we illustrate how failure detectors can ..."

The ϕ accrual failure detector
- RR IS-RR-2004-010, Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology
, 2004
"... Traditionally, failure detectors have considered a binary model whereby a given process can be either trusted or suspected. This paper defines a family of failure detectors, called accrual failure detectors, that revisits this interaction model. Accrual failure detectors associate to each process a ..."

Asynchronous Failure Detectors
, 2013
"... Failure detectors — oracles that provide information about process crashes — are an important abstraction for crash tolerance in distributed systems. The generality of failure-detector theory, while providing great expressiveness, poses significant challenges in developing a robust hierarchy of fail ..."

Gamma Accurate Failure Detectors
, 1996
"... The knowledge about failures needed to solve distributed agreement problems can be expressed in terms of completeness and accuracy properties of failure detectors introduced by Chandra and Toueg. The accuracy properties they have considered restrict the false suspicions that can be made by all the p ..."

Fail-Aware Failure Detectors
, 1996
"... In existing asynchronous distributed systems it is impossible to implement failure detectors which are perfect, i.e. they only suspect crashed processes and eventually suspect all crashed processes. Some recent research has however proposed that any "reasonable" failure detector for solvin ..."

On the Quality of Service of Failure Detectors £
"... We study the quality of service (QoS) of failure detectors. By QoS, we mean a specification that quantifies (a) how fast the failure detector detects actual failures, and (b) how well it avoids false detections. We first propose a set of QoS metrics to specify failure detectors for systems with prob ..."
