Abstract

A local stabilizer protocol that takes any on- or off-line distributed algorithm and converts it into a synchronous self-stabilizing algorithm with local monitoring and repairing properties is presented. Whenever the self-stabilizing version enters an inconsistent state, the inconsistency is detected, in O(1) time, and the system state is repaired in a local manner. The expected computation time that is lost during the repair process is proportional to the largest diameter of a faulty region.
