The Chandra–Toueg consensus algorithm is a distributed consensus algorithm proposed by Tamer Chandra and Sam Toueg in their 1996 paper. It addresses the problem of achieving consensus among a group of distributed processes in the presence of failures, particularly in asynchronous distributed systems where processes can fail by crashing and asynchrony can lead to message delays.
