There are currently two approaches to providing Byzantine-fault-tolerant state machine replication: a replica-based approach, e.g., BFT, that uses communication between replicas t...

Quorum protocols offer several benefits when used to maintain replicated data but techniques for reducing overheads associated with them have not been explored in detail. It is d...

Replicated services accessed via quorums enable each access to be performed at only a subset (quorum) of the servers and achieve consistency across accesses by requiring any two qu...
Byzantine quorum systems [13] enhance the availability and efficiency of fault-tolerant replicated services when servers may suffer Byzantine failures. An important limitation of...

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...
