Improved Consensus Protocol for IoT Trust Management Systems

IET Blockchain, Volume 6, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT With the rapid development of the internet of things (IoT), the security collaboration between devices poses higher demands on traditional trust management. Blockchain technology, due to its decentralisation and tamper‐proof characteristics, has become an effective solution for building trustworthy IoT systems.

Experiences with Fault-Injection in a Byzantine Fault-Tolerant Protocol [PDF]

, 2013
The overall performance improvement in Byzantine fault-tolerant state machine replication algorithms has made them a viable option for critical high-performance systems. However, the construction of the proofs necessary to support these algorithms are complex and often make assumptions that may or may not be true in a particular implementation ...

Byzantine Fault-Tolerance with Commutative Commands [PDF]

, 2011
State machine replication is a popular approach to increasing the availability of computer services. While it has been largely studied in the presence of crash-stop failures and malicious failures, all existing state machine replication protocols that provide byzantine fault-tolerance implement some variant of atomic broadcast.

Enhancing Security, Privacy and Performance of Blockchain‐Based Verifiable Certificate Digital Identity Verification and Management Systems in the Education Sector Using the Plonk System

IET Blockchain, Volume 6, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Components of the Plonk System. ABSTRACT The promise of blockchain applications is transformative in terms of certificate verification and managing digital identities in the various fields, such as education, healthcare and land records. Nevertheless, current blockchain‐based certificate solutions have serious shortcomings: most are based on simple ...

Non-determinism in Byzantine Fault-Tolerant Replication

CoRR, 2016
Service replication distributes an application over many processes for tolerating faults, attacks, and misbehavior among a subset of the processes. The established state-machine replication paradigm inherently requires the application to be deterministic.

Study of Blockchains’s Consensus Mechanism Based on Credit

IEEE Access, 2019
Practical Byzantine fault tolerance (PBFT) is one of the most popular consensus protocols of the blockchain. However, in the PBFT, the enthusiasm of reliable nodes cannot be stimulated effectively, and a large amount of communication resources are used ...

Generalized Paxos Made Byzantine (and Less Complex)

Algorithms, 2018
One of the most recent members of the Paxos family of protocols is Generalized Paxos. This variant of Paxos has the characteristic that it departs from the original specification of consensus, allowing for a weaker safety condition where different ...
