  • Abstract
    Chaney´s masterful exposition [1] on my suggestion [2] for defeating synchronizer or interlock maloperation should provide some much needed publicity for the nature and possible effects of synchronizer metastability. Hopefully, the discussion will discourage further attempts to eliminate this unavoidable characteristic.
