Secure Intrusion-tolerant Replication on the Internet
This paper describes a Secure INtrusion-Tolerant Replication Architecture1 (SINTRA) for coordination in asynchronous networks subject to Byzantine faults. SINTRA supplies a number...

An Optimal Atomic Broadcast Protocol and an Implementation Framework
Atomic Broadcast (where all processes deliver broadcast messages in the same order) is a very useful group communication primitive for building fault-tolerant distributed systems....

Optimistic Generic Broadcast
Atomic Broadcast, used for example in state machine replication, requires three communication steps. Optimistic Atomic Broadcast requires only two steps if all processes receive m...

A new look at atomic broadcast in the asynchronous crash-recovery model
Atomic broadcast in particular, and group communication in general, have mainly been specified and implemented in a system model where processes do not recover after a crash. The...

Solving Atomic Broadcast with Indirect Consensus
In previous work, it has been shown how to solve atomic broadcast by reduction to consensus on messages. While this solution is theoretically correct, it has its limitations in pr...

On the Cost of Modularity in Atomic Broadcast
Modularity is a desirable property of complex software systems, since it simplifies code reuse, verification, maintenance, etc. However, the use of loosely coupled modules intro...
