The Effect of Restrictions on Relative Processor Speeds to Differences in Efficiency Between Synchronous and Asynchronous Systems (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Effect of Restrictions on Relative Processor Speeds to Differences in Efficiency Between Synchronous and Asynchronous Systems
An infinite computation is admissible if every process appears infinitely often in the sequence. A round is any sequence of steps such that every process appears at least once in the sequence.
A minimal round is a round such that no proper prefix is a round (or, in other words, it is any sequence of steps such that every process appears at least once and at least one process appears just once). The run time for a finite sequence of steps is defined to be the number of segments in the partition into minimal rounds (the last segment may be just a part of a round).

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the tradeoff between efficiency and complexity in synchronous versus asynchronous systems. Asynchronous systems, where processes operate at different speeds, have long been thought to be less efficient than synchronous systems. However, the author shows that in fact, the efficiency gap between these two approaches is largely dependent on restrictions placed on processor speeds. The author's research demonstrates that by introducing restrictions on relative processor speeds, the time required to solve a given problem in an asynchronous system can be significantly reduced. This finding has implications for the design of distributed systems, as it suggests that asynchronous systems may be more suitable for certain applications than previously thought. The book's insights contribute significantly to our understanding of the relationship between efficiency and complexity in distributed systems. By quantifying the impact of processor speed restrictions, the author provides a valuable framework for evaluating the performance of different system designs.
