Abstract
In this paper, we propose a distributed algorithm for solving the h-out of-k mutual exclusion problem with the aid of a specific k-coterie - cohorts coterie. The proposed algorithm is resilient to node and/or link failures, and has constant message cost in the best case. Furthermore, it is a candidate to achieve the highest availability among all the algorithms using k-coteries. We analyze the algorithm and compare it with other related ones.
