The paper presents and evaluates Nysiad,1 a system that implements a new technique for transforming a scalable distributed system or network protocol tolerant only of crash failur...

We study how to efficiently diffuse updates to a large distributed system of data replicas, some of which may exhibit arbitrary (Byzantine) failures. We assume that strictly fewer...
Abstract. We consider the problem of synchronizing clocks in synchronous systems prone to transient and dynamic process failures, i.e., we consider systems where all processes may ...
Byzantine agreement algorithms typically assume implicit initial state consistency and synchronization among the correct nodes and then operate in coordinated rounds of informatio...
One of the main advantages of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems is their capability to offer replicas of the same content at various locations. This allows to access contents even when so...
