Synopsis

This book solves an issue in distributed computing, a rapidly growing field that underpins modern technology. The problem is that multiple requests for the same resource must be managed to avoid data loss or wasted time. The author presents a series of algorithms that improve upon previous attempts at resource management in a distributed system, making them much faster and more efficient. The book presents two main algorithms, the first being generally efficient for all use cases and the second being faster in certain situations. Both algorithms guarantee that no process will starve or be unfairly treated.
