The presentation is completely rigorous, yet is intuitive enough for immediate comprehension. The material on system models is isolated in separate chapters for easy reference. The material is organized according to the system model-first by the timing model and then by the interprocess communication mechanism. The problems covered include resource allocation, communication, consensus among distributed processes, data consistency, deadlock detection, leader election, global snapshots, and many others. The algorithms are proved correct, and their complexity is analyzed according to precisely defined complexity measures.
She directs her book at a wide audience, including students, programmers, system designers, and researchers.ĭistributed Algorithms contains the most significant algorithms and impossibility results in the area, all in a simple automata-theoretic setting. In Distributed Algorithms, Nancy Lynch provides a blueprint for designing, implementing, and analyzing distributed algorithms.
