Increasing performance in byzantine fault-tolerant systems with on-demand replica consistency
Traditional agreement-based Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) systems process all requests on all replicas to ensure consistency. In addition to the overhead for BFT protocol and sta...

The Voltan application programming environment for fail-silent processes
The Voltan software library for building distributed applications provides the support for (i) a processpair to act as single Voltan self-checking ‘fail-silent’ process; and (...

Making Distributed Applications Robust
We present a novel translation of systems that are tolerant of crash failures to systems that are tolerant of Byzantine failures in an asynchronous environment, making weaker assum...

Byzantine Consensus with Few Synchronous Links
This paper tackles the consensus problem in asynchronous systems prone to byzantine failures. One way to circumvent the FLP impossibility result consists in adding synchrony assump...

Compositional Design of Multitolerant Repetitive Byzantine Agreement
We illustrate in this paper a compositional and stepwise method for designing programs that o er a potentially unique tolerance to each of their fault-classes. More speci cally, o...

Sharing Memory with Semi-Byzantine Clients and Faulty Storage Servers
This paper presents fault-tolerant simulations of a single-writer multi-reader regular register in storage systems. One simulation tolerates fail-stop failures of storage servers ...

Consensus with Byzantine Failures and Little System Synchrony
We study consensus in a message-passing system where only some of the Ò¾ links exhibit some synchrony. This problem was previously studied for systems with process crashes; we n...
