Judy L. Edighoffer, Keith A. Lantz · Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) · 1985
This paper describes a computer bulletin board facility intended to support replicated bulletin boards on a network that may frequently be in state of partition. The two major design issues covered are the choice of a name space and the choice of replication algorithms. The impact of the name space on communication costs is explained. A special purpose replication algorithm that provides high availability and response network partition is introduced.
