08371 Abstracts Collection -- Fault-Tolerant Distributed Algorithms on VLSI Chips

From September the $7^{text{th}}$, 2008 to September the $10^{text{th}}$, 2008 the Dagstuhl Seminar 08371 ``Fault-Tolerant Distributed Algorithms on VLSI Chips \u27\u27 was held in Schloss Dagstuhl~--~Leibniz Center for Informatics. The seminar was devoted to exploring whether the wealth of existing fault-tolerant distributed algorithms research can be utilized for meeting the challenges of future-generation VLSI chips. During the seminar, several participants from both the VLSI and distributed algorithms\u27 discipline, presented their current research, and ongoing work and possibilities for collaboration were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available
