We introduce a model with conserved dynamics, where nearest neighbor pairs of spins ↑↓ (↓↑) can exchange to assume the configuration ↓↑ (↑↓), with rate β(α), through energy decreasing moves only. We report exact solution for the case when one of the rates, α or β, is zero. The irreversibility of such zero-temperature dynamics results in strong dependence on the initial conditions. Domain wall arguments suggest that for more general, finite-temperature models with steady states the dynamical critical exponent for the anisotropic spin exchange is different from the isotropic value.
