DC (Unit 4)

The document outlines consensus and recovery algorithms in distributed systems, focusing on the Byzantine Agreement Problem and various recovery techniques such as checkpointing and rollback recovery. It discusses the challenges of achieving agreement in both synchronous and asynchronous systems, particularly in the presence of failures. Additionally, it covers the definitions, algorithms, and issues related to failure recovery, including coordinated checkpointing and the complexities involved in distributed systems.
