| Abstract(in English) | The use of quorums is a well-known approach to achieving distributed mutual exclusion. This approach works based on a coterie, a special set of node groups such that any pair of node groups shares at least one common node. Each node group in a coterie is called a quorum. Mutual exclusion is ensured by imposing each node to get consensus from all nodes in at least one of the quorums before it enters a critical section. In such a quorum-based mutual exclusion scheme, the delay for reaching consensus depends critically on the coterie adopted, thus finding a coterie with small delay is very important for achieving good performance. We propose two polynomial-time algorithms to find max-delay optimal coteries, i.e., coteries that minimize the maximum delay for reaching consensus. Unlike previous algorithms, the proposed algorithms can be applied to systems with arbitrary topologies. |
