Distributed systems

a group communication model in which members observe membership changes and multicasts in a consistent order, as if execution were synchronous.

In distributed systems, virtual synchrony refers to a group communication model in which members observe membership changes and multicasts in a consistent order, as if execution were synchronous. This meaning comes from Birman (1987) in Proceedings of the eleventh ACM Symposium on Operating systems principles - SOSP '87.[1]
