The '''[[Glenn Ricart|Ricart]]-[[Ashok Agrawala|Agrawala]] Algorithm''' is an algorithm for [[mutual exclusion]] on a [[distributed system]]. This algorithm is an extension and optimization of [[Lamport's Distributed Mutual Exclusion Algorithm]], by removing the need for <math>release</math> messages. It was developed by [[Glenn Ricart]] and [[Ashok Agrawala]].
