Although distributed key generation (DKG) has been studied for some time, it has never been examined outside of the synchronous setting. We present the first realistic DKG archit...
When a new component is added to an existing, distributed system, it has to co-operate with existing components in a way that doesn’t interfere badly with the original system. A...
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...

Communication-induced checkpointing protocols that ensure rollback-dependency trackability (RDT) guarantee important properties to the recovery system without explicit coordinatio...

This paper describes a group communication system called the timewheel group communication system that has been designed for a timed asynchronous distributed system model. The tim...
