Reliable Multicast between Micro-Kernels

چکیده
ISIS is a system for building applications consisting of cooperating, distributed processes. Here we present a new implementation of the ISIS system, geared towards modern microkernel technology. We have adopted similar strategies, such as using basic internal mechanisms for efficiency, external services to implement policies, and light-weight user space constructs for simplicity. The resulting design is less complex and more efficient than the present one. This discussion focuses on the integration of our new system into the MACH and Chorus systems, and discusses the status and performance of an initial implementation.

Scalable Atomic Multicast Scalable Atomic Multicast
We present a new scalable fault-tolerant algorithm which ensures total order delivery of messages sent to multiple groups of processes. The algorithm is scalable in the sense that: (1) any process can multicast a message to one or more groups of processes without being forced to join those groups; (2) inter-group total order is ensured system-wide but, for each individual multicast, the number ...

This paper presents the deenition and solution to the uniform reliable multicast problem in the virtually synchronous environment deened by the Isis system. A uniform reliable multicast of a message m has the property that if m has been received by any destination process (faulty or not), then m is received by all processes that reach a decision. Uniform reliable mul-ticast provides a solution ...

We present a new scalable fault-tolerant algorithm which ensures total order delivery of messages sent to multiple groups of processes. Our algorithm is particularly well suited for large scale systems because: (1) any process can multicast a message to one or more groups of processes without being forced to join those groups; (2) inter-group total order is ensured system-wide but, for each ind...

متن کاملThe impact of routing on multicast error recovery
We investigate the relationship between multicast routing algorithms and reliable multicast communication. To capture the impact of the multicast tree topology onto reliable multicast, we consider two performance measures, namely the probability mass function of successful receptions and the expected number of retransmissions needed to successfully deliver a packet from the source to all receiv...
