Abstract

A distributed system consists of processes linked to one another by communication links. A classical problem is how to realistically model these links so that it is possible to write correct algorithms. This paper presents a new solution that results in more natural executions and removes the need for artificial workarounds.

A more detailed version appears as a technical report [3].
