Abstract
Group communication denotes a set of membership, communication, and
coordination services that support the development of distributed
applications based on process groups. These services are typically
provided by a protocol stack, which includes layers such as failure
detectors, reliable multicast, view-synchrony, total order, among
others. The performance of these protocols is highly dependent on
the operational envelope, including network latency, link error
rates, load profile, etc. Therefore, multiple implementations of
each layer have been proposed, each excelling in a different
scenario. This work addresses the architectures and mechanisms
required to build adaptive protocol composition frameworks, namely
those supporting group communication, such that they can cope with a
wide range of varying requirements.
