It has recently been shown that fair exchange, a security problem in distributed systems, can be reduced to a fault tolerance problem, namely a special form of distributed consensu...

Abstract. This paper studies the impact of omission failures on asynchronous distributed systems with crash-stop failures. We provide two different transformations for algorithms,...

We present a modular redesign of TrustedPals, a smartcard-based security framework for solving secure multiparty computation (SMC)[?]. TrustedPals allows to reduce SMC to the probl...
This paper shows that, in an environment where we do not bound the number of faulty processes, the class P of Perfect failure detectors is the weakest (among realistic failure det...
Nowadays, there are many protocols able to cope with process crashes, but, unfortunately, a process crash represents only a particular faulty behavior. Handling tougher failures (...
