In recent literature on eternal inflation, a number of measures have been introduced which attempt to assign probabilities to different pocket universes by counting the number of each type of pocket according to a specific procedure. We give an overview of the existing measures, pointing out some interesting connections and generic predictions. For example, pairs of vacua that undergo fast tran...

one of the most important characteristics of the eternal religion is the adaptation of its decrees with the changes of the human’s life in the transition of time. so, it is necessary for us to review the second decrees as the flexible dimensions of the decrees. according to the causes of some decrees’ change, altering the decree’s subject leads to the change of the primitive decrees into the se...

In CORBA-based applications that depend on object replication for fault tolerance, inconsistencies in the states of the replicas of an object can arise when concurrent threads within those replicas perform updates in di erent orders. By imposing a single logical thread of control on every replicated multithreaded CORBA client or server object, and by providing deterministic scheduling of thread...

The Eternal system provides a novel methodology for the consistent replication of objects in an adaptive, faulttolerant, CORBA-compliant distributed system that is susceptible to partitioning. Passive and active replication schemes are supported in Eternal, and mechanisms are provided for the interaction of objects with different replication schemes. Nested operations for both passive and activ...

The Eternal system is a CORBA 2.0-compliant system that enhances the CORBA standard with replication and thus fault tolerance. The novel interception approach implemented in the Eternal system involves capturing IIOPspecific system calls made by the ORB, and subsequently mapping these calls onto a reliable multicast group communication system. The motivation for the use of this approach is that...
