Causal ordering in distributed systems has received much attention over the past four
decades and different schemes for capturing causality have been proposed. Despite the fact …

Several scalable constant size clocks were proposed in the literature for tracking causality of
events in distributed systems with a high accuracy, even though they do capture but not …

Almost all published work on causal ordering mechanisms assumes theoretically
unbounded counters for timestamps, thus ignoring the real-world problem that arises if one …

Causality in distributed systems is a concept that has long been explored and numerous
approaches have been made to use causality as a way to trace distributed system …

Causal ordering is an important property in distributed systems. Several algorithms have
been developed over this principle. For example, there are solutions for roll-back recovery …

The vector clock is a fundamental tool for tracking causality in distributed applications.
Unfortunately, it does not scale well to large systems because each process needs to …

In recent years there has been a growing interest in developing communication systems that
are able to deliver messages respecting potential causality. Unfortunately, causal delivery …

In this paper we present a study on the subject of the Immediate Dependency Relation
(IDR), and we show how by extending the IDR relation, one can ensure a global causal …
