Distributed Network Protocols
Abstract
A unified approach to the formal description and validation of several distributed protocols is presented. After introducing two basic protocols, a series of known and new protocols for connectivity test, shortest path, and path updating are described and validated. All protocols are extended to networks with changing topology. © 1983 IEEE
