Post-Deterministic Distributed Systems: A New Foundation for Trustworthy Autonomous Infrastructure

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2606.01722v1 Announce Type: cross For decades, distributed systems have typically assumed that correct participants execute protocol-specified behavior with stable, externally defined, and deterministic semantics. Classical theory has extensively parameterized network timing, communication topologies, and failure domains, but this participant model has remained comparatively fixed.
