The Performance of Byzantine Fault Tolerant Blockchains

Vincent Gramoli

Blockchains have captured the attention of many, resulting in an abundance of new systems available for use. However, selecting an appropriate blockchain for an application is challenging due to the lack of comparative information discussing core metrics s ...

Scalable Byzantine Reliable Broadcast

Rachid Guerraoui, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Matej Pavlovic, Matteo Monti

Byzantine reliable broadcast is a powerful primitive that allows a set of processes to agree on a message from a designated sender, even if some processes (including the sender) are Byzantine. Existing broadcast protocols for this setting scale poorly, as ...

Scaling Byzantine Fault Tolerance

Matej Pavlovic

Online services are becoming more and more ubiquitous and keep growing in scale. At the same time, they are required to be highly available, secure, energy-efficient, and to achieve high performance. To ensure these (and many other) properties, replication ...

AGGREGATHOR: Byzantine Machine Learning via Robust Gradient Aggregation

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault, Georgios Damaskinos, Arsany Hany Abdelmessih Guirguis

We present AGGREGATHOR, a framework that implements state-of-the-art robust (Byzantine-resilient) distributed stochastic gradient descent. Following the standard parameter server model, we assume that a minority of worker machines can be controlled by an a ...

Asynchronous Byzantine Machine Learning (the case of SGD)

Rachid Guerraoui, Mahsa Taziki, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Rhicheek Patra, Georgios Damaskinos

Asynchronous distributed machine learning solutions have proven very effective so far, but always assuming perfectly functioning workers. In practice, some of the workers can however exhibit Byzantine behavior, caused by hardware failures, software bugs, c ...

How Fast can a Distributed Transaction Commit?

Rachid Guerraoui, Junxiong Wang

The atomic commit problem lies at the heart of distributed database systems. The problem consists for a set of processes (database nodes) to agree on whether to commit or abort a transaction (agreement property). The commit decision can only be taken if al ...

Byzantine Fireflies

Rachid Guerraoui, Alexandre David Olivier Maurer

This paper addresses the problem of synchronous beeping, as addressed by swarms of fireflies. We present Byzantine-resilient algorithms ensuring that the correct processes eventually beep synchronously despite a subset of nodes beeping asynchronously. We a ...

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 ...
