Communication-Closed Layers as Paradigm for Distributed Systems: A Manifesto




Abstract:
Distributed computations are characterized by a partial order over events: two concurrent events at different processes may be re-ordered without changing the outcome of the computation. For systems that are composed of so-called communication-closed layers, this partial-order argument has been used by Elrad and Francez [13] to reduce the reasoning about distributed systems to a specific sequential form. We discuss existing techniques for communicationclosed layers, and discuss applications to automated verification of state-ofthe- art distributed systems.
