Randomized agreement protocols have been around for more than two decades. Often assumed to be inefficient due to their high expected communication and time complexities, they ha...

Traditional agreement-based Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) systems process all requests on all replicas to ensure consistency. In addition to the overhead for BFT protocol and sta...
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...
Given a set of n different deterministic finite state machines (DFSMs) modeling a distributed system, we examine the problem of tolerating f crash or Byzantine faults in such a ...

Abstract—In this paper, we implement and evaluate three different Byzantine Fault-Tolerant (BFT) state machine replication protocols for data centers: (1) BASIC: The classic solu...
