Two Friends Sample Clauses

Two Friends. Xxxxx wants to arrange dinner with Bob, and since both of them are very re- luctant to use the “call” functionality of their phones, she sends a text message suggesting to meet for dinner at 6pm. However, texting is unreliable, and Xxxxx cannot be sure that the message arrives at Bob’s phone, hence she will only go to the meeting point if she receives a confirmation message from Bob. But Bob cannot be sure that his confirmation message is received; if the confirmation is lost, Xxxxx cannot determine if Bob did not even receive her suggestion, or if Bob’s confirmation was lost. Therefore, Bob demands a confirmation message from Xxxxx, to be sure that she will be there. But as this message can also be lost. . . You can see that such a message exchange continues forever, if both Xxxxx and Xxx want to be sure that the other person will come to the meeting point! Remarks: • Such a protocol cannot terminate: Assume that there are protocols which lead to agreement, and P is one of the protocols which require the least number of messages. As the last confirmation might be lost and the protocol still needs to guarantee agreement, we can simply decide to always omit the last message. This gives us a new protocol Pj which requires less messages than P , contradicting the assumption that P required the minimal amount of messages. • Can Xxxxx and Xxx use Paxos?
