In this paper, we evaluated various distributed mutual exclusion algorithms on the IBM SP2 machine and the Intel iPSC/860 system. The empirical results are compared in terms of su...
With the properties of autonomy, social ability, reactivity and pro-activeness, agents can be used to represent entities in distributed simulations, where fast and accurate decisi...
We present a simple implementation of a token-based distributed mutual exclusion algorithm for multithreaded systems. Several per-node requests could be issued by threads running ...
Two novel suboptimal algorithms for mutual exclusion in distributed systems are presented. One is based on the modi cation of Maekawa's grid based quorum scheme. The size of ...
A self-stabilizing algorithm, regardless of the initial system state, converges in finite time to a set of states that satisfy a legitimacy predicate without the need for explici...
