Increasingly, more aspects of our lives rely on the correctness and safety of computing
systems, namely in the embedded and cyber-physical (CPS) domains, which directly affect …

Abstract Multi-and even Manycore Processor System on Chips (MPSoCs) are becoming
increasingly prevalent in embedded systems. However, despite their technical and …

It is well known that Byzantine fault tolerant (BFT) consensus cannot be solved in the classic
asynchronous message passing model when one-third or more of the processes may be …

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 …

Byzantine Fault tolerant (BFT) protocols are implemented to guarantee the correct
system/application behavior even in the presence of arbitrary faults (ie, Byzantine faults) …

Today, it is common knowledge in the cyber-physical systems domain that the tight
interaction between the cyber and physical elements provides the possibility of substantially …

Experiences with computer systems indicate an inconvenient truth: computers fail and they
fail in interesting ways. Although using redundancy to protect against fail-stop failures is …

The integration of wireline networks with wireless ad hoc networks is expected to have a
revolutionary impact on a wide range of applications by enabling pervasive computing. For …

Recently, possible application scenarios of Byzantine fault tolerant (BFT) state-machine
replication have been expanded to include highly resource-constrained nodes, with RAM of …

We present ezBFT, a novel leaderless, distributed consensus protocol capable of tolerating
byzantine faults. ezBFT's main goal is to minimize the client-side latency in WAN …
