title = "A fault-tolerant algorithm for replicated data management",
abstract = "The problem of managing replicated copies of data in a distributed database is considered. Quorum consensus methods for managing replicated data require that an operation proceed only if a group of copies form a quorum. For example, in a majority voting scheme, for a write operation to proceed, a majority of the copies have to form a quorum. The authors first introduce a performance measure for measuring the performance of fault-tolerant algorithms for this problem. They then propose a quorum-based method which is highly fault tolerant and has a low message overhead. The algorithm can tradeoff fault tolerance for lower message overhead. The algorithm is compared to existing algorithms.",
