Computing Fault-Containment Times of Self-Stabilizing Algorithms Using Lumped Markov Chains

The analysis of self-stabilizing algorithms is often limited to the worst case stabilization time starting from an arbitrary state, i.e., a state resulting from a sequence of faults. Considering the fact that these algorithms are intended to provide fault tolerance in the long run, this is not the m...
