Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a demonstration scenario of the Chandy-Lamport algorithm using a hypothetical distributed system with three processes. Show how it captures a global state.

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Map out each step clearly with interactions.

Question 2

Reflect on a real-world application where strong consistency ensures reliability. Discuss how the Chandy-Lamport algorithm could be applied there.

๐Ÿ’ก Hint: Consider scenarios that require precise state capturing.
