The aim of this paper is to provide a brief introduction to the renaming problem for unfamiliar readers. In the renaming problem the processes have to acquire new names from a small bounded space despite possible process crashes and asynchrony.The problem is first introduced. Then two solutions are presented. One considers the shared memory model, while the second considers the message-passing model.

Index Terms:

Atomic register, Concurrency, Fault-tolerance, Message passing system, Process crash, Renaming problem, Shared memory system, Wait-free computation.
