Large number of peer processes distributed in varioustypes of networks are cooperating to achieve some objectives.We discuss a scalable group communication protocolnamed HCG (heterogeneous clock group) protocol. Messagesare required to be causally delivered by using clocksin a group. An HCG group is composed of local subgroupsin each of which processes are in a local or personal areanetwork and which are interconnected in a wide-area network.In order to support the causally ordered deliveryof messages in a scalable group, processes in local subgroupsuse physical and linear clocks while processes ina wide-area network adopt vector clock. We discuss howto causally deliver messages by using local synchronizationmechanisms of each subgroup. We evaluate the HCG protocolin terms of number of messages ordered.
