Replica Management Should Be A Game


	The OceanStore Project Paper Abstract Efficient Heartbeats and Repair of Softstate in Decentralized Object Location and Routing Systems Hakim Weatherspoon and John Kubiatowicz. Appears in Proceedings of the SIGOPS European Workshop 2002,

Redundancy alone is not sufficient to provide long-term guarantees in distributed systems. Instead, it must be coupled with mechanisms for automatic maintenance. In this paper, we show how Decentralized Object Location and Routing networks (DOLRs) with locality provide a framework for efficient heartbeats and continuous system repair.
