Lamport Algorithm, presented by Prafulla Santosh Patil, is a permission-based algorithm utilizing timestamps to order critical section requests and resolve conflicts. It employs three types of messages: REQUEST, REPLY, and RELEASE, where each site manages a queue to store requests. By ensuring commu

This content covers the concept of causal consistency in computing systems, exploring consistency models such as Causal Linearizability and Eventual Sequential. It explains the importance of logical clocks like Lamport and vector clocks, and how they ensure order in distributed systems. The concept

Memory consistency models play a crucial role in ensuring proper synchronization and ordering of memory references in computer systems. Sequential consistency, introduced by Lamport in 1979, treats processors as interleaved processes on a shared CPU and requires all references to fit into a global o

Continuing from the previous lecture on time synchronization, this session delved into logical clock synchronization, mutual exclusion, and election algorithms in distributed systems. Logical clocks, such as Lamport's Clock and Vector Clock, play a crucial role in defining the order of events withou
