Reconfigurable Sequential Consistency Algorithm

In this paper, we propose, implement and analyze the performance of a Reconfigurable Sequential Consistency Algorithm (RSCA) using simulation. Extending the concepts of reconfigurable devices to the algorithmic level, we model RSCA that is a reconfigurable sequential consistency algorithm for asynchronous distributed systems that manage concurrent objects stating. As our main results, we present that, on average, the performance of RSCA was 36% better than the traditional sequential consistency algorithms. The main contributions of this paper are: the definition, proposal, implementation and performance analysis of RSCA.
