On the optimal space complexity of consensus for anonymous processes

Abstract The optimal space complexity of consensus in asynchronous shared memory was an open problem for two decades. For a system of n processes, no algorithm using a sublinear number of registers is known. Up until very recently, the best known lower bound due to Fich, Herlihy, and...
