Abstract

In this thesis we design algorithms for three problems: snapshot, consensus, and fetch-and-add modulo k. Our solutions for snapshot and consensus are non-anonymous and obstruction-free, and our solution for Fetch-and-add Modulo k is wait-free. We also conjecture an anonymous, obstruction-free solution to consensus.
