Notice of Violation of IEEE Publication Principles"A Fault Tolerant Election Protocol in Asynchronous Distributed Systems with Fail-Stop Model"by Sung-Hoon Park, Sang-Gwon Lee, Su-Chang Yuin the Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Information Technology-New Generations, April 2015, pp. 44-48After careful and considered review of the content and authorship of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE’s Publication Principles.This paper copied large portions of original text from the papers cited below. The original text was copied without attribution (including appropriate references to the original author(s) and/or paper titles) and without permission.Due to the nature of this violation, reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper, and future references should be made to the following articles:"A Leader Election Protocol for Fault Recovery in Asynchronous Fully-Connected Networks"by Massimo Franceschetti, Jehoshua Bruckin Paradise Electronic Technical Report #24, Caltech.edu, 1998"A Group Membership Algorithm with a Practical Specification"by Massimo Franceschetti, Jehoshua Bruckin IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, Vol 12, No 11, November 2001, pp. 1190-1200We introduce a new algorithm for fault-tolerant election protocol in asynchronous distributed systems. Informally, a safety strengthened election protocol is needed in a practical distributed computing environment. Consider a mission critical distributed system such as an electronic commerce system that runs multiple servers in which one of them roles a master (leader) and others are slaves. To have data consistency among the servers in the system, this system should not violate safety property, which means that all processes connected the system never disagree on a leader. In those systems the safety property is more important property than the liveness property. In this paper, we presents a safety strengthened Leader Election protocol with an unreliable failure detector and analyses it in terms of safety and liveness properties in asynchronous distributed systems.
