Group communication protocols (GCPs) play an important role in the design of modern distributed systems. A typical GCP exchanges control messages to provide message delivery guarantees, and a key point in the configuration of such a protocol is to establish the right trade-off between message overhead and delivery latency. This trade-off becomes even a greater challenge in systems where computing...
Replication techniques that tolerate byzantine failures have been applied in distributed computing to cope with hostile environments in which system components may fail due to malicious or natural causes (e.g., intrusions). From the seminal work of Lamport, Pease and Shostak on Byzantine Generals, in 1982, Castro and Liskov proposed in 1999 a successful solution, named PBFT, which overcomes performance...
