Quantitative Analysis of Consensus Algorithms

André Schiper, Martin Hutle, Fatemeh Borran, Nuno Filipe de Sousa Santos

Consensus is one of the key problems in fault-tolerant distributed computing. Although the solvability of consensus is now a well-understood problem, comparing different algorithms in terms of efficiency is still an open problem. In this paper, we address ...

Timing Analysis of Leader-Based and Decentralized Byzantine Consensus Algorithms

André Schiper, Martin Hutle, Fatemeh Borran

We compare in an analytical way two leader-based and decentralized algorithms (that is, algorithms that do not use a leader) for Byzantine consensus with strong validity. We show that for \emph{the algorithms we analyzed}, in most cases, the decentralized ...

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 ...

Round-Based Consensus Algorithms, Predicate Implementations and Quantitative Analysis

Fatemeh Borran

Fault-tolerant computing is the art and science of building computer systems that continue to operate normally in the presence of faults. The fault tolerance field covers a wide spectrum of research area ranging from computer hardware to computer software. ...

Generating Fast Indulgent Algorithms

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Dan Alistarh

Synchronous distributed algorithms are easier to design and prove correct than algorithms that tolerate asynchrony. Yet, in the real world, networks experience asynchrony and other timing anomalies. In this paper, we address the question of how to efficien ...

Generalized Universality

Rachid Guerraoui

State machine replication reduces distributed to centralized computing. Any sequential service, modeled by a state machine, can be replicated over any number of processes and made highly available to all of them. At the heart of this fundamental reduction ...

Verification of consensus algorithms using satisfiability solving

André Schiper

Consensus is at the heart of fault-tolerant distributed computing systems. Much research has been devoted to developing algorithms for this particular problem. This paper presents a semi-automatic verification approach for asynchronous consensus algorithms ...

Byzantine agreement with homonyms

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Eric Ruppert

So far, the distributed computing community has either assumed that all the processes of a distributed system have distinct identifiers or, more rarely, that the processes are anonymous and have no identifiers. These are two extremes of the same general mo ...
