Learn how to implement mutual exclusion in distributed systems using different algorithms, such as Lamport's, Ricart-Agrawala's, and token-based ones.

This paper presents a reliable decentralized mutual exclusion algorithm for distributed systems in which processes communicate by asynchronous message passing. When any failure happens in system, the ...

A distributed mutual exclusion algorithm based on token exchange and well suited for mobile ad-hoc networks is presented along with a simulation study. The algorithm is based on a dynamic logical ring ...
