Performance Evaluation of the . Accrual Failure Detector

Abstract

In this paper, we explain an implementation of an accrual failure detector, that we call the . failure detector. The particularity of the . failure detector is that it dynamically adjusts to current network conditions the scale on which the suspicion level is expressed. We have done the experiment in a LAN in a whole day and evaluated the behavior of our . failure detector. Then we discuss on the parameters of the failure detector based on our experimental result.
