Abstract

A family of deterministic asynchronous Write-All algorithms were studied to analyze the properties of the set of permutations proposed by Kanellakis and Shvartsman. The efficiency of the algorithms was measured in terms of work acounted for all machine instructions executed by processors. It was found that the analytical results covered only a subset of the possible adversarial patterns of asynchrony. The analysis suggested that the proposed method yielded a faster construction of the Write-All algorithms compared to other methods.
