We present a framework for transforming several quorum-based protocols so that they can dynamically adapt their failure threshold and server count, allowing them to be reconfigure...
In this paper we present two protocols for asynchronous Byzantine Quorum Systems (BQS) built on top of reliable channels—one for self-verifying data and the other for any data. ...

Byzantine Quorum Systems is a replication technique used to ensure availability and consistency of replicates data even in presence of arbitrary faults. This paper presents a Byzan...
This paper presents Timed Quorum System (TQS), a quorum system for large-scale and dynamic systems. TQS provides guarantees that two quorums, accessed at instances of time that are...
In order to enable communication between a dynamic collection of peers with given ID’s, such as “machine.cs.school.edu”, over the Internet, a distributed name service must b...
