Description

This lecture covers the limitations of registers in implementing consensus among processes, focusing on algorithms using Fetch&Inc, Test&Set, and Compare&Swap objects. It discusses the impossibility of achieving consensus with only registers, presenting proofs and lemmas to support the arguments.
