摘要: Decentralized algorithms can be characterized by successive rounds of message interchanges. Several communication structures have been proposed to design decentralized algorithms such as diffusion computations, logically fully connected structures and neighbouring-set communication structures. In this paper, we present a new communication structure, called KDAMS, which can be used to design message and bit optimal decentralized algorithms for evaluating associative and commutative functions which include distributed transaction commitment and extrema finding. In addition, the KDAMS has the potential for easily imposing fault-tolerant mechanisms.
