Nonatomic dual bakery algorithm with bounded tokens
A simple mutual exclusion algorithm is presented that only uses nonatomic shared variables of bounded size, and that satisfies bounded overtaking. When the shared variables behave...

The weakest failure detector for wait-free dining under eventual weak exclusion
Dining philosophers is a classic scheduling problem for local mutual exclusion on arbitrary conflict graphs. We establish necessary conditions to solve wait-free dining under even...

Bounded Fairness
Abstract. Bounded fairness is a stronger notion than ordinary eventuality-based fairness, one that guarantees occurrence of an event within a fixed number of occurrences of anothe...
