Wireless networks are more ubiquitous than before and they present a whole new set of problems with their inception. Disconnection is one of such problems where mobile terminals can disconnect. Failure is another problem that is inherited from the distributed systems. The two may create partitions in the distributed systems which are necessary to be detected for fault tolerance in mobile environments. In this work, we present a partition detection service which is interoperable with group communication systems. The main idea of our proposition is to allow clients of the partition detection service to make the distinction between the nodes that are faulty and the ones that are only partitioned or disconnected.
