  • Abstract
    Based on the advantages and disadvantages of LUK´s and LI´s algorithms, a symmetric distributed mutual exclusion quorum generation algorithm with variable-length has been presented. Through introducing the concepts of laxity and average permission repeat times, the time complexity of this quorum generation algorithm became to O(N/2) and the quorum length became N1/2+laxity.
