Eighth IEEE International Workshop on Object-Oriented Real-Time Dependable Systems (WORDS'03) Reliable Compare & Swap for Fault-Tolerant Synchronization Guadalajara, Mexico January 15-January 17 ISBN: 0-7695-1929-6
This paper presents two Compare&Swap protocols that, with respect to omission failures, are (1) fault-tolerant and (2) gracefully degrading, respectively. shows that fault-tolerance and gracefull degradation are close but distinct concepts, and that graceful degradation is inherently more costly than fault-tolerance. These Compare&Swap protocols are derived from consensus protocols proposed by Chandra, Jayanti and Toueg.
