Detection of global event predicates is an important issue for distributed systems, particularly for debugging and monitoring of such systems. This paper defines event normal form (ENF) event predicates, and then provides an on-line distributed algorithm to detect the first occurrence of such a pred

This paper establishes the necessary and sufficient condition for a correct clock resetting such that the functionality of vector clocks can be preserved. A clock reset protocol is presented with its applicability and limitation discussed. Our result indicates that for some applications, the potenti
This paper discusses efficient detection of global predicates in a distributed program. Previous work in this area required predicates to be specified as a conjunction of predicates defined on individual processes. Many properties in distributed systems, however, use the state of channels, such as "
