      Specified by:
        `getUpEndpointCount` in interface `FailureDetectorMBean`

    - #### getEndpointState

          public java.lang.String getEndpointState(java.lang.String address)
                                            throws java.net.UnknownHostException

      Specified by:
        `getEndpointState` in interface `FailureDetectorMBean`
      Throws:
        `java.net.UnknownHostException`

    - #### dumpInterArrivalTimes

          public void dumpInterArrivalTimes()

      Dump the inter arrival times for examination if necessary.
      Specified by:
        `dumpInterArrivalTimes` in interface `FailureDetectorMBean`

    - #### setPhiConvictThreshold

          public void setPhiConvictThreshold(double phi)

      Specified by:
        `setPhiConvictThreshold` in interface `FailureDetectorMBean`

    - #### getPhiConvictThreshold

          public double getPhiConvictThreshold()

      Specified by:
        `getPhiConvictThreshold` in interface `FailureDetectorMBean`

    - #### isAlive

          public boolean isAlive(java.net.InetAddress ep)

      Description copied from interface: `IFailureDetector`
      Failure Detector's knowledge of whether a node is up or down.
      Specified by:
        `isAlive` in interface `IFailureDetector`
      Parameters:
        `ep` - endpoint in question.
      Returns:
        true if UP and false if DOWN.

    - #### report

          public void report(java.net.InetAddress ep)

      Description copied from interface: `IFailureDetector`
      This method is invoked by the receiver of the heartbeat. In our case it would be the Gossiper. Gossiper inform the Failure Detector on receipt of a heartbeat. The FailureDetector will then sample the arrival time as explained in the paper.

      param ep endpoint being reported.
      Specified by:
        `report` in interface `IFailureDetector`

    - #### interpret

          public void interpret(java.net.InetAddress ep)

      Description copied from interface: `IFailureDetector`
      This method is invoked by any entity wanting to interrogate the status of an endpoint. In our case it would be the Gossiper. The Failure Detector will then calculate Phi and deem an endpoint as suspicious or alive as explained in the Hayashibara paper.

      param ep endpoint for which we interpret the inter arrival times.
      Specified by:
        `interpret` in interface `IFailureDetector`

    - #### forceConviction

          public void forceConviction(java.net.InetAddress ep)

      Description copied from interface: `IFailureDetector`
      force conviction of endpoint in the failure detector
      Specified by:
        `forceConviction` in interface `IFailureDetector`

    - #### remove

          public void remove(java.net.InetAddress ep)

      Description copied from interface: `IFailureDetector`
      remove endpoint from failure detector
      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `IFailureDetector`

    - #### registerFailureDetectionEventListener

          public void registerFailureDetectionEventListener(IFailureDetectionEventListener listener)
