Journal ArticleDOI
Bimodal multicast
TL;DR: This article introduces the protocol, provides a theoretical analysis of its behavior, review experimental results, and discusses some candidate applications, confirming that bimodal multicast is reliable, scalable, and that the protocol provides remarkably stable delivery throughput.
Book ChapterDOI
A gossip-style failure detection service
TL;DR: A new protocol based on gossiping is described that does scale well and provides timely detection, and is extended to discover and leverage the underlying network topology for much improved resource utilization.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Cryptographic support for fault-tolerant distributed computing
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a replication and voting protocol for distributed systems with multiple hosts that are not visited by agents, but can be masquerade as other faulty hosts, but do not have access to secrets of non-faulty hosts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tolerating Malicious Gossip
Yaron Minsky,Fred B. Schneider +1 more
TL;DR: A new class of gossip protocols to diffuse updates securely is presented, which rely on annotating updates with the path along which they travel and which would appear to be practical, even in large networks.
Spreading rumors cheaply, quickly, and reliably
Fred B. Schneider,Yaron Minsky +1 more
TL;DR: This thesis addresses a number of problems associated with gossip protocols, including dealing with the failure of a large fraction of the hosts in a system, accommodating the topology of the underlying network, improving the efficiency of information exchange between hosts, and tolerating Byzantine failures.
