dc.description.abstract | The possibility of partial failure occuring at any stage of computation complicates rigorous formal treatment of distributed algorithms. We propose a methodology for formalising and proving the correctness of distributed algorithms which alleviates this complexity. The methodology uses fault-tolerance bisimulation proof techniques to split the analysis into two phases, that is a failure-free phase and a failure phase, permitting separation of concerns. We design a minimal partial-failure calculus, develop a corresponding bisimulation theory for it and express a consensus algorithm in the calculus. We then use the consensus example and the calculus theory to demonstrate the benefits of our methodology. | en_GB |
