 Dijkstra–Scholten algorithm

The Dijkstra–Scholten algorithm is a distributed algorithm used for implementing termination detection in distributed systems, particularly in the context of distributed computing and databases. This algorithm is named after Edsger W. Dijkstra and Jan Scholten, who introduced it in their work on distributed computing. ### Key Concepts: 1. **Termination Detection**: The goal of the algorithm is to determine whether a distributed computation has completed (meaning that there are no active messages or processes left).
