Abstract: The notion of belief has been useful in reasoning about authentication protocols. In this paper, we show how the notion of belief can be applied to reasoning about cache coherence in a distributed file system. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first formal analysis of this problem. We used an extended subset of a logic of authentication [4, 5] to help us analyze three cache coherence protocols: a validate-on-use protocol, an invalidation-based protocol, and a new large granularity...

...invalidation for the volume ends the run only if there is no callback on the file. 2 A complete analysis of all three protocols appears in [18]. Without loss of generality, we can analyze this cache coherence protocol by considering one client, C , one server, S , one file, f ,...

...should drive the formalization of the system model and expression of the correctness condition. For example, in work by Mummert et al. [13], the authors started with this informal statement of cache coherence for a distributed file system: If a client believes that a cached...
