Title
Renaming in synchronous message passing systems with Byzantine failures
Abstract
We study the renaming problem in a fully connected synchronous network with Byzantine failures. We show that when the original namespace of the processors is unbounded, this problem cannot be solved in an a priori bounded number of rounds for $$t\geq(n+n\textrm{ mod }3)/3$$ , where n is the size of the network and t is the number of failures. On the other hand, for n > 3t, we present a Byzantine renaming algorithm that runs in O(lg n) rounds. In addition, we present a fast, efficient strong renaming algorithm for n > t, which runs in $$O(n lg^{2}\lceil N_{0}/n\rceil)$$ rounds, where N 0 is the value of the highest identifier among all the correct processors.
