Tight bounds for asynchronous randomized consensus
A distributed consensus algorithm allows n processes to reach a common decision value starting from individual inputs. Wait-free consensus, in which a process always terminates within a finite number of its own steps, is impossible in an asynchronous shared-memory system. However, consensus becomes solvable using randomization when a pro
