Lyte Quorum: Off-Chain Ready Smart Contract Hosted with Choice
Hao Hao, Dahlia Malkhi, Maofan Yin +1
This paper introduces Lyquor, a decentralized platform that reimagines blockchain infrastructure through a service-centric model where nodes selectively host smart contracts (calle…
Ordered Consensus with Equal Opportunity
Yunhao Zhang, Haobin Ni, Soumya Basu +6
The specification of state machine replication (SMR) has no requirement on the final total order of commands. In blockchains based on SMR, however, order matters, since different o…
On Orchestrating Parallel Broadcasts for Distributed Ledgers
Peiyao Sheng, Chenyuan Wu, Dahlia Malkhi +4
This paper introduces and develops the concept of ``ticketing'', through which atomic broadcasts are orchestrated by nodes in a distributed system. The paper studies different tick…
BBCA-CHAIN: Low Latency, High Throughput BFT Consensus on a DAG
Dahlia Malkhi, Chrysoula Stathakopoulou, Maofan Yin
This paper presents a partially synchronous BFT consensus protocol powered by BBCA, a lightly modified Byzantine Consistent Broadcast (BCB) primitive. BBCA provides a Complete-Adop…
BBCA-LEDGER: High Throughput Consensus meets Low Latency
Chrysoula Stathakopoulou, Michael Wei, Maofan Yin +2
This paper presents BBCA-LEDGER, a Byzantine log replication technology for partially synchronous networks enabling blocks to be broadcast in parallel, such that each broadcast is…
Lessons from HotStuff
Dahlia Malkhi, Maofan Yin
This article will take you on a journey to the core of blockchains, their Byzantine consensus engine, where HotStuff emerged as a new algorithmic foundation for the classical Byzan…
CedrusDB: Persistent Key-Value Store with Memory-Mapped Lazy-Trie
Maofan Yin, Hongbo Zhang, Robbert van Renesse +1
As a result of RAM becoming cheaper, there has been a trend in key-value store design towards maintaining a fast in-memory index (such as a hash table) while logging user operation…
Scalable and Probabilistic Leaderless BFT Consensus through Metastability
Team Rocket, Maofan Yin, Kevin Sekniqi +2
This paper introduces a family of leaderless Byzantine fault tolerance protocols, built around a metastable mechanism via network subsampling. These protocols provide a strong prob…
HotStuff: BFT Consensus in the Lens of Blockchain
Maofan Yin, Dahlia Malkhi, Michael K. Reiter +2
We present HotStuff, a leader-based Byzantine fault-tolerant replication protocol for the partially synchronous model. Once network communication becomes synchronous, HotStuff enab…
