The Weak Mutual Exclusion problem
In this paper we define the Weak Mutual Exclusion (WME) problem. Analogously to classical Distributed Mutual Exclusion (DME), WME serializes the accesses to a shared resource. Di...

Adaptive randomized mutual exclusion in sub-logarithmic expected time
Mutual exclusion is a fundamental distributed coordination problem. Shared-memory mutual exclusion research focuses on local-spin algorithms and uses the remote memory references ...

Device Locks: Mutual Exclusion for Storage Area Networks
Device Locks are mechanisms used in distributed environments to facilitate mutual exclusion of shared resources. They can further be used to maintain coherence of data that is cac...

A tight bound on remote reference time complexity of mutual exclusion in the read-modify-write model
In distributed shared memory multiprocessors, remote memory references generate processor-to-memory traffic, which may result in a bottleneck. It is therefore important to design ...

A Dynamic Group Mutual Exclusion Algorithm Using Surrogate-Quorums
The group mutual exclusion problem extends the traditional mutual exclusion problem by associating a type with each critical section. In this problem, processes requesting critica...
