In this video, I delved into the concept of leader election in distributed systems, focusing on the LCR algorithm. This algorithm operates synchronously, with each node pitching itself as a potential leader by forwarding messages to neighbors. The node with the highest UID becomes the leader, signaling the end of the election. The simplicity and effectiveness of the LCR algorithm lie in its asynchronous nature and minimal assumptions. Despite its communication complexity of order n square, it is suitable for smaller distributed networks. Baby steps in algorithm design can lead to robust distributed systems solutions.
