Efficient reconciliation and flow control for anti-entropy protocols

Published:15 September 2008Publication History

ABSTRACT

The paper shows that anti-entropy protocols can process only a limited rate of updates, and proposes and evaluates a new state reconciliation mechanism as well as a flow control scheme for anti-entropy protocols.
