The paper proposes a new state machine replication protocol for the partially synchronous system model with Byzantine faults. The algorithm, called BFT-Mencius, guarantees that the latency of updates initiated by correct processes is eventually upper-bounded, even in the presence of Byzantine processes. BFTMencius is based on a new communication primitive, Abortable Timely Announced Broadcast (ATAB), and does not use signatures. We evaluate the performance of BFT-Mencius in cluster settings, and show that it provides bounded latency and good throughput, being comparable to the state-of-the-art algorithms such as PBFT and Spinning in fault-free configurations and outperforming them under performance attacks by Byzantine processes. |
