Abstract :
We propose a new consistency protocol named Pilgrim for distributed shared memory (DSM) where different shared objects are replicated at each site. This protocol provides both reliable consistency and guaranteed performance. This protocol is discussed and proved with a finite state automaton, and we demonstrate its qualities
