Question 1
What does the Chandy-Lamport algorithm primarily help to achieve?
- Decrease message latency
- Capture a consistent global state
- Increase system throughput
๐ก Hint: Think about what problems arise in distributed systems.
Question 2
True or False: The Chandy-Lamport algorithm requires all processes to halt before a snapshot is captured.
- True
- False
๐ก Hint: Review how the algorithm operates in a distributed system.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Consider a distributed system with three processes (A, B, C). Process A sends a message to B just before recording its state. Later, C receives that message after recording its state. Analyze whether the resulting snapshot can be consistent.
๐ก Hint: Check the conditions of message passing and recording to understand the implications.
Question 2
Design a distributed application that uses the Chandy-Lamport algorithm for maintaining consistency across a transaction system. What would be the potential issues and how could they be addressed?
๐ก Hint: Consider the roles of each process in staying synchronized while still operating independently.
