The use of good random numbers is essential to the integrity of many mission-critical systems. However, when such systems are replicated for Byzantine fault tolerance, a serious i...
Abstract—This paper describes a method to implement faulttolerant services in distributed systems based on the idea of fused state machines. The theory of fused state machines us...
In the past, some research has been done on how to use proactive recovery to build intrusion-tolerant replicated systems that are resilient to any number of faults, as long as reco...

Byzantine fault tolerant state machine replication (BFT-SMR) is a foundation for implementations of highly reliable services. Existing algorithms for BFT-SMR require at least 3f +...
The high replication cost of Byzantine fault-tolerance (BFT) methods has been a major barrier to their widespread adoption in commercial distributed applications. We present ZZ, a...
