The paper addresses the problem of client–service interaction in the case of replicated service provision. Existing systems that follow the State Machine approach concentrate on...
A quorum system is a collection of sets (quorums) of servers, where any two quorums intersect. Quorumbased protocols underly modern edge-computing architectures and throughput-sca...
This paper presents the design of a novel system architecture, Virtual Service Grid (VSG), for delivering high performance network services. The VSG is based on the concept of the...
Intrusion-tolerant replication enables the construction of systems that tolerate a finite number of malicious faults. An arbitrary number of faults can be tolerated during system ...
In this paper we demonstrate how stateful Byzantine Fault Tolerant services may be hosted on a Chord ring. The strategy presented is fourfold: firstly a replication scheme that di...
