Quotations
1 ;;Quote: broadcasting updates by direct mail is not reliable -- lose or unknown sites
1 ;;Quote: anti-entropy compares databases at random -- is much slower than direct mail
1 ;;Quote: rumor mongering -- mail updates until they're old news at multiple sites
1 ;;Quote: favor nearby servers for anti-entropy and rumor mongering updates
2 ;;Quote: Clearinghouse at Xerox: several hundred ethernets and several thousand workstations, servers and hosts
2 ;;Quote: primary-site responsible for propagating all of its updates, e.g., DARPA
2 ;;Quote: Clearinghouse's update algorithm only requires eventual delivery of repeated messages
4 ;;Quote: anti-entropy by recent updates and comparing checksums
6 ;;Quote: use anti-entropy as a backup for rumor mongering
7 ;;Quote: use death certificates to delete items -- retain dormant certificates
7 ;;Quote: in Xerox's internet, sites can be down for hours or even days
