In this paper, we present a self-stabilizing quorum-based distributed mutual exclusion algorithm. Our algorithm is designed for an asynchronous message-passing model. The algorithm scales well since it has constant synchronization delay and its message complexity is proportional to the square root o

Mutual exclusion in distributed memory systems is realized by passing messages among sites to establish a sequence for the waiting sites to enter the critical section. We have evaluated various distributed mutual exclusion algorithms on the IBM SP2 machine and the Intel iPSCΓ860 system, with their e
Several algorithms reducing the number of messages were presented later (see Ricart and Agrawala [21] and Carvalho and Roucairol [4]). The number of messages was proportional to N. The algorithm presented by Chandy and Misra [6] (in which permission is in the form of a fork) is the most efficient of
