Brief Announcement: Decoupled Quorum-Based Byzantine-Resilient Coordination in Open Distributed Systems

摘要

The tuple space coordination model, originally introduced in the Linda programming language [2], uses a shared memory object called a tuple space to support coordination that is decoupled both in time - processes do not have to be active at the same time - and space - processes do not need to know each others' addresses. The tuple space can be considered to be a kind of storage that stores tuples, I.e. finite sequences of values. The operations supported are essentially three: inserting a tuple in the space, reading a tuple from the space and removing a tuple from the space.
