On the Reduction of Atomic Broadcast to Consensus with Byzantine Faults

André Schiper, Martin Hutle, Zarko Milosevic

We investigate the reduction of atomic broadcast to consensus in systems with Byzantine faults. Among the several definitions of Byzantine consensus that differ only by their validity property, we identify those equivalent to atomic broadcast. Finally, we ...

Optimal-Time Adaptive Strong Renaming, with Applications to Counting

Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh, Morteza Zadimoghaddam

We give two new randomized algorithms for tight renaming, both of which work against an adaptive adversary. The first uses repeated sampling over a sequence of arrays of decreasing size to assign unique names to each of

Fast Randomized Test-and-Set and Renaming

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh, Hagit Albo Attiya, Andrei Giurgiu

Most people believe that renaming is easy: simply choose a name \emph{at random}; if more than one process selects the same name, then try again. We highlight the issues that occur when trying to implement such a scheme and shed new light on the read-write ...

A Weighting Scheme for Enhancing Community Detection in Networks

Martin Hasler, Alireza Khadivi

Many algorithms have recently been proposed for finding communities in networks. By definition, a community is a subset of vertices with a high number of connections among the vertices, but only few connections with other vertices. The worst drawback of mo ...

Algebraic, AIDA/Cube and Side Channel Analysis of KATAN Family of Block Ciphers

Pouyan Sepehrdad, Jorge Nakahara

This paper presents the first results on AIDA/cube, algebraic and side-channel attacks on variable number of rounds of all members of the KATAN family of block ciphers. Our cube attacks reach 60, 40 and 30 rounds of KATAN32, KATAN48 and KATAN64, respective ...

Distributed Agreement with Optimal Communication Complexity

Seth Gilbert

We consider the problem of fault-tolerant agreement in a crash-prone synchronous system. We present a new randomized consensus algorithm that achieves optimal communication efficiency, using only O(n) bits of communication, and terminates in (almost optima ...

A Fault-Tolerant Token based Atomic Broadcast Algorithm

André Schiper, Nils Richard Ekwall

Many atomic broadcast algorithms have been published in the last twenty years. Token based algorithms represent a large class of these algorithms. Interestingly, all the token based atomic broadcast algorithms rely on a group membership service and none of ...

Attacking the Knudsen-Preneel Compression Functions

Martijn Stam, Onur Özen

Knudsen and Preneel (Asiacrypt’96 and Crypto’97) introduced a hash function design in which a linear error-correcting code is used to build a wide-pipe compression function from underlying blockciphers operating in Davies-Meyer mode. In this paper, we (re) ...

Refined quorum systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Marko Vukolic

It is considered good distributed computing practice to devise object implementations that tolerate contention, periods of asynchrony and a large number of failures, but perform fast if few failures occur, the system is synchronous and there is no contenti ...
