Abstract: A few algorithms of distributed mutual exclusion are discussed, their unified model in terms of a finite-population queuing system is proposed, and their simulation performance study is presented with the assumption that they use multicast communication if possible. To formally represent the algorithms for simulation, a class of extended Petri nets is used. The simulation was done in the simulation system Winsim based on this class of Petri nets.
