Compact deterministic self-stabilizing leader election on a ring: the exponential advantage of being talkative

Abstract: This paper focuses on compact deterministic self-stabilizing solutions for the leader election problem. When the protocol is required to be silent (i.e., when communication content remains fixed from some point in time during any execution), there exists a lower bound of Ω(log n) bits of memory per node participating to the leader election (where n denotes the number of nodes in the system). This lower bound holds even in rings. We present a new deterministic (non-silent) self-stabilizing protocol for n-node r… Show more

“…For this reasons, after a node v detects an error, our algorithm cleans v and all of its descendants. The cleaning process is achieved by Algorithm Freeze, already presented in previous works [12,13,10]. Algorithm Freeze is run in two cases: cycle detection (thanks to predicate ErCyclepvq, presented in Subsection 3.4), and impostor leader detection (thanks to predicate ErSTpvq, presented in Subsection 3.5).…”

“…There are a few self-stabilizing tree-construction algorithms that are not using explicit distance variables (see, e.g., [30,22,16]), but their space-complexity is Opn log nq bits [22,16] or Oplog n`∆q [30]. Using the general principle of distance variables with spacecomplexity below Θplog nq bits was attempted by Awerbuch et al [5], and Blin et al [12]. These papers distribute pieces of information about the distances to the leader among the nodes according to different mechanisms, enabling to store oplog nq bits per node.…”

“…The first open question is to decide if our non silent self-stabilizing algorithm is optimal with respect to memory requirement. A recent work [10], which presents a non silent BFS-based leader election self-stabilizing algorithm requiring O(log log n) bits of memory per process, leads us to think that we can improve the memory requirement of our algorithm. This naturally opens another question about the optimality of a silent self-stabilizing algorithm for minimum diameter spanning tree construction.…”

“…To illustrate the versatility of our method, we review several existing works where our results apply.After the seminal work of Dijkstra, many self-stabilizing algorithms have been proposed to solve various tasks such as spanning tree constructions [2], token circulations [3], clock synchronization [4], propagation of information with feedbacks [5]. Those works consider a large taxonomy of topologies: rings [6,7], (directed) trees [5,8,9], planar graphs [10,11], arbitrary connected graphs [12,13], etc. Among those topologies, the class of directed (in-) trees (i.e., trees where one process is distinguished as the root and edges are oriented toward the root) is of particular interest.…”
