Abstract

In this paper, the authors first clarify that it is not a trivial matter whether or not a self-stabilizing algorithm under the Dolev model, when adapted to a composite atomicity model, is also self-stabilizing. Then the authors employ a particular “simulation” approach to show that if a self-stabilizing algorithm under the Dolev model has one of two certain forms, then it is also self-stabilizing when adapted to one of the composite atomicity models, the fair daemon model. Since most existing self-stabilizing algorithms under the Dolev model have the above-mentioned forms, the authors’ results imply that they are all self-stabilizing when adapted to the fair daemon model.
