Wait-free clock synchronization

Abstract
)AbstractMulti-processor computer systems with many processorsare becoming increasingly important as vehicles forsolving computationally expensive problems. Synchronizationamong the processors is achieved with a varietyof clock configurations. A new notion of fault-tolerancefor clock synchronization algorithms is defined, tailoredto the requirements and failure patterns of multiprocessors.Algorithms in this class can tolerate any numberof processors that can fail by ceasing...
