Implementing Sequentially Consistent Shared Objects using Broadcast and Point-To-Point Communication

A distributed algorithm that implements a sequentially consistent collection of shared read/update objects using a combination of broadcast and point-to-point communication is presented and proved correct. This algorithm is a generalization of one used in the Orca shared object system. The algorithm...
