Although the principles of gossip protocols are relatively easy to grasp, their variety can
make their design and evaluation highly time consuming. This problem is compounded by …

Most proposed gossip-based systems use an ad-hoc design. We observe a low degree of
reutilization among this proposals. We present how this limits both the systematic …
