Title
Self-stabilizing census with cut-through constraint
Abstract
We present a distributed census algorithm for unidirectional rings subject to transient faults. This algorithm is written using the efficient cut-through routing scheme, where the messages must be forwarded to a neighbor before they are completely received. The distributed census problem can be informally described as follows: The nodes cooperate to reach a global configuration where every node can determine, within finite time, which nodes are and which nodes are not present in the network. The fault-tolerance is achieved using Dijkstra's paradigm of self-stabilization. A self-stabilizing algorithm, regardless of the initial system configuration, converges in finite time to a set of \textit{legitimate} configurations.
