Abstract

A quorum system is a collection of sets (quorums) every two of which have a nonempty intersection. Quorum systems have been used for a number of applications in the area of distributed systems. In this paper we study the fault-tolerance properties of quorum systems, and their implications on quorum based distributed protocols.
