Question
Omission of any of the three requirements of Definition 13.3 (termination, agreement, non-triviality) for the consensus problem allows a very simple solution. Show this by presenting the three simple solutions.
Step 1
In this case, the consensus problem can be solved by having each process simply output its own initial value as the consensus value. Since there is no termination requirement, each process can output its value immediately without waiting for any other process. Show more…
