Problems Facing Group Membership Specifications for X-by-Wire Protocols
نویسنده
چکیده
A guarantee is only as good as its assumptions. Three group membership areas defy firm, practical guarantees: transient faults, reintegration, and large groups. We show why these areas are problematic, discuss current approaches, and illustrate alternative approaches that may lead to a more dependable system. Ultimately, designs should be tested against a comprehensive fault model, and a probabilistic analysis cannot be avoided.

CARNEGIE MELLON UNIVERSITY CARNEGIE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Reliability Validation of Group Membership Services for X-by-Wire Protocols
Distributed fault tolerance algorithms are used for many ultra-reliable systems. For example, aviation fly-by-wire and automotive drive-by-wire network protocols need to reliably deliver data despite the presence of faults. Careful design is required, since ultrareliable systems permit a failure rate on the order of just 10−9 failures per hour. Unfortunately, investing more effort at the design...
متن کاملThe use of cerclage wire for surgical repair of unilateral rostral mandibular fracture in horses
Fractures of the rostral mandible in horses are the most common type of jaw fractures. The present study was performed for stabilization of rostral mandibular fracture with cerclage wire. In a retrospective case series, six client-owned horses with unilateral mandibular fractures were admitted to our clinic and suffered from a major gingival wound at rostral part of mandible. Rostral mandibular...
متن کاملThe SecureRing Protocols for Securing Group Communication
The SecureRing group communication protocols provide reliable ordered message delivery and group membership services despite Byzantine faults such as might be caused by modifications to the programs of a group member following illicit access to, or capture of, a group member. The protocols multicast messages to groups of processors within an asynchronous distributed system and deliver messages ...
متن کاملAn algorithm for determining common weights by concept of membership function
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method to evaluate the relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs). In this method, the issue has always been to determine a set of weights for each DMU which often caused many problems. Since the DEA models also have the multi-objective linear programming (MOLP) problems nature, a rational relationship can be established between MOLP and DEA problem...

Private handshaking allows pairs of users to determine which (secret) groups they are both a member of. Group membership is kept secret to everybody else. Private handshaking is a more private form of secret handshaking [BDS03], because it does not allow the group administrator to trace users. We extend the original definition of a handshaking protocol to allow and test for membership of multip...
