If a message is received, the receiving system 'j' sets its counter Cj to 1 more than the maximum of its present value and the incoming time-stamp Ti. At each and every site, the ordering of messages is found out by the given rules: For messages x from site i and y from site j, x leads y if one of the given conditions holds....
a) if Ti<Tj or
b) if Ti=Tj and i<j
