The Byzantine Generals Problem

Recommendations

Authenticated Byzantine generals in dual failure model
ICDCN'10: Proceedings of the 11th international conference on Distributed computing and networking

Pease et al. introduced the problem of Byzantine Generals (BGP) to study the effects of Byzantine faults in distributed protocols for reliable broadcast. It is well known that BGP among n players tolerating up to t faults is (efficiently) possible iff n ...
Application-Aware Byzantine Fault Tolerance
DASC '14: Proceedings of the 2014 IEEE 12th International Conference on Dependable, Autonomic and Secure Computing

Byzantine fault tolerance has been intensively studied over the past decade as a way to enhance the intrusion resilience of computer systems. However, state-machine-based Byzantine fault tolerance algorithms require deterministic application processing ...
Multi-Threshold Byzantine Fault Tolerance
CCS '21: Proceedings of the 2021 ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security

Classic Byzantine fault tolerant (BFT) protocols are designed for a specific timing model, most often one of the following: synchronous, asynchronous or partially synchronous. It is well known that the timing model and fault tolerance threshold present ...
