A Hybrid and Adaptive Model for Fault-Tolerant Distributed Computing

Failure-aware resource management for high-availability computing clusters with distributed virtual machines

“…Jiménez et al [25] proved that a failure detector class with weak completeness can be implemented only if every process knows the identity of the rest of processes in redundant computing. The influence of processing speed and message delay in redundant computing has been investigated by Raynal et al [19]. In [26], Junqueira and Marzullo proposed a framework which considers correlated failures for the design of distributed algorithms, and they used replication predicates to express process replication constraints.…”

An Adaptive Programming Model for Fault-Tolerant Distributed Computing

“…The proposed system has been implemented in JAVA and tested over a set of networked LINUX workstations, equipped with QoS capabilities. More details of this implementation can be found elsewhere [15].…”

“…The proofs for the uniform agreement and termination properties, given by Theorems 1 and 2, respectively, follow. The proof for validity is omitted here due to space limitations, and can be found elsewhere [15]. Lemma 1.…”

“…(The complete description of the QoS Provider is beyond the scope of this paper. More details can be seen elsewhere [13], [15]). Processes interact with the QoS Provider through the following functions: CreateChannelðp x ; p y Þ : Å 2 !…”
