- W1499148852 abstract "The thesis explores certain problems of synchronization for systems of processes which execute asynchronously. In a system of asynchronous parallel processes, the speed of execution of each process is independent of that of all the other processes in the system and may vary as the process executes. Two forms of communication are addressed in the thesis: communication through shared variables and communication by passing messages. The next three paragraphs discuss results using the shared variable model developed in the thesis. The final paragraph summarizes results about message passing systems.A system satisfies mutual exclusion if it is impossible for two processes to simultaneously reach portions of their code called A system is deadlock-free if there is no computation in which every process continues to execute, but no process makes any progress. It is shown that N binary shared variables are necessary and sufficient to solve the problem of deadlock-free mutual exclusion for N processes which communicate only by atomic reads and writes of shared variables.A system is lockout-free if there is no computation in which every process continues to execute, but some process does not make progress. Using a more powerful operation on shared variables (the generalized test-and-set), it is shown that lockout-free mutual exclusion can be solved for N processes with a single shared variable which takes on at most {N/2} + 9 values.A system satisfies n-exclusion (a generalization of mutual exclusion) if no more than n processes may simultaneously reach their critical sections. It is shown that the shared variables must be capable of taking on at least n(N-n) distinct values for a system of N processes which satisfies n-exclusion and has the property that there is a bound on how long a process must wait before it reaches its critical section.The problem examined for sytems which communicate by passing messages is called the election problem. Beginning with an initial configuration in which no process has any information about the number or identity of the other processes in the system, a single process is chosen to become the system controller. It is shown that this can be solved by sending at most 4N + 6N log N messages for a system of N processes connected in a ring network. It is also shown that more than (1/8)N log N messages must be sent in the worst case for such a ring of processes." @default.
