Abstract
In this article, we show that some fundamental self- and snap-stabilizing wave protocols (e.g., token circulation, PIF , etc.) implicitly assume a very light property that we call BreakingIn . We prove that BreakingIn is strictly induced by self- and snap-stabilization. Combined with a transformer, BreakingIn allows to easily turn the non-fault-tolerant versions of those protocols into snap-stabilizing versions. Unlike the previous solutions, the transformed protocols are very efficient and work at least with the same daemon as the initial versions extended to satisfy BreakingIn . Finally, we show how to use an additional property of the transformer to design snap-stabilizing extensions of those fundamental protocols like Mutual Exclusion.
