— We present the first protocol that reaches asynchronous Byzantine consensus in two communication steps in the common case. We prove that our protocol is optimal in terms of bo...
This work presents a comprehensive theoretical framework for window-based congestion control protocols that are designed to converge to fairness and efficiency. We first derive ...
While a variety of mechanisms have been developed for securing individual intra-domain protocols, none address the issue in a holistic manner. We develop a unified framework to sec...
This paper describes a decentralized consistency protocol for survivable storage that exploits local data versioning within each storage-node. Such versioning enables the protocol...

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...
