Abstract
Partially ordered sets appear as a basic tool in computer science and are particularly accurate for modeling dynamic behavior of complex sys tems. Motivated by considerations on the diagnosis of distributed comp utations a new kind of algorithm on posets has been developed and is n ow widely considered. In this paper we present this ''on-line'' algori thmics on posets and we survey the main results obtained under this ap proach.
