    abstract = {In distributed environment, the leader election process is to main system consistency and to make
the system a reliable one. Leader election process is to select a single node as leader among other members.
High availability is a system design approach. It ensures that a pre arranged level of operational performance
will be met during a contractual measurement period. High availability is essential for mission critical
applications. The term highly available refers that the systems can continue providing services even when
master node (i.e., coordinator) fails. Goal of the proposed work is to use a suitable distributed election algorithm
to improve high availability features. Stable leader election is implemented to increase robustness and
efficiency. Election commission concept is used to minimize message passing. This algorithm is used to identify
a temporary master when there is any failure in existing master node and reduces message passing. At the
back-end the implementation will be invoked inside a cluster to achieve scalability in addition to high
availability features.}
