Leader Election in Asynchronous Distributed Systems
Abstract:
In a previous paper, Garcia-Molina specifies the leader election problem
for synchronous and asynchronous distributed systems with crash and link
failures and gives an elegant algorithm for each type of system. This
paper points out a flaw in Garcia-Molina's specification of leader
election in asynchronous systems and proposes a new specification.
