A Simple Object that Spans the Whole Consensus Hierarchy
This paper presents a simple generalization of the basic atomic read/write register object, whose genericity parameter spans the whole set of integers and is such that its k-parameterized instance has exactly consensus number k. This object, whose definition is pretty natural, is a sliding window register of size k. Its interest lies in its simplicity and its genericity dimension which provides...
متن کاملPolynomial-Length Planning Spans the Polynomial Hierarchy
This paper presents a family of results on the computational complexity of the decision problem associated with planning: Does a valid plan exist? We consider the effect on complexity of several assumptions typical of classical planning: complete knowledge of the initial state, determinism, polynomial-time determination of executability of actions in a state. We consider plans of two types: con...
متن کاملPolynomial-Length Planning Spans the Polynomial Hierarchy (Incomplete Draft)
This paper presents a family of results on the computational complexity of the decision problem associated with planning: Does a valid plan exist? Several classes of planning problems are considered: classical planning, conformant planning, conditional planning with full or partial observability. Throughout, attention is restricted to plans of polynomiallybounded length. For conditional plannin...
متن کاملThe Consensus Hierarchy is not
The consensus hierarchy characterizes the strength of a shared object by its ability to solve the consensus problem in a wait-free manner. A robust hierarchy has the additional property that objects at lower levels cannot be combined in any way to construct objects at higher levels of the hierarchy. Several variations of the consensus hierarchy have appeared in the literature, and it has been s...
متن کاملA Shared Object Hierarchy
This paper describes the design and proposed implementation of a shared object hierarchy. The object hierarchy is stored in a relational database and objects referenced by an application program are cached in the program’s address space. The paper describes the database representation for the object hierarchy and the use of POSTGRES, a next-generation relational database management system, to i...
