A framework for viewing atomic events in distributed computations
We present a unifying framework for expressing and analyzing events at various levels of atomicity in distributed computations. In the framework, events at any level of atomicity are defined and composed in te...

Testing of synchronization conditions for distributed real-time applications
A set of synchronization relations between distributed nonatomic events was recently proposed to provide real-time applications with a fine level of discrimination in the specification of causality relations a...

Necessary and sufficient conditions on information for causal message ordering and their optimal implementation
This paper formulates necessary and sufficient conditions on the information required for enforcing causal ordering in a distributed system with asynchronous communication. The paper then presents an algorith...

Causality and atomicity in distributed computations
In a distributed system, high-level actions can be modeled by nonatomic events. This paper proposes causality relations between distributed nonatomic events and provides efficient testing conditions for the r...

The power of logical clock abstractions
Vector and matrix clocks are extensively used in asynchronous distributed systems. This paper asks, “how does the clock abstraction generalize?” To address this problem, the paper motivates and proposes logica...
