Abstract: This paper is self-contained. In the remainder of this section, we explain the two ring buffer algorithms and discuss our disagreements with Lamport. In Section 2, we give a brief introduction to evolving algebras. In Section 3, we present our formalizations of the ring buffer algorithms as evolving algebras. In Section 4, we define a version of lock-step equivalence and prove that our formalizations of these algorithms are equivalent in that sense. Finally,we discuss the inequivalence of these ...

.... than required; if the application has a finer notion of equivalence, one has to identify items which one really wants to distinguish (see [43]) Evolving algebras can be used in connection with any notion of equivalence. Another illustration comes from the success obtained by...

...recently in [4] We present here a self contained introduction to ASMs. Sections 1.1 through 1. 4 describe distributed ASMs (adapted from [5]) section 1.5 describes real time ASMs. Those already familiar with ASMs may skip ahead to section 2. 1.1 States The states of a ASM...
