Abstract: Techniques for implementing Byzantine fault tolerance with verifiable secret sharing at constant overhead are provided. In one set of embodiments, a client can determine a secret value s to be shared with N replicas in a distributed system, s being input data for a service operation provided by the N replicas. The client can further encode s into an f-degree polynomial P(x) where f corresponds to a maximum number of faulty replicas in the distributed system, evaluate P(x) at i for i=1 to N resulting in N evaluations P(i), generate at least one f-degree recovery polynomial R(x) based on a distributed pseudo-random function (DPRF) fα(x), and evaluate R(x) at i for i=1 to N resulting in at least N evaluations R(i). The client can then invoke the service operation, the invoking comprising transmitting a message including P(i) and R(i) to each respective replica i.

Abstract: Techniques for implementing linear view-change with optimistic responsiveness in a BFT protocol running on a distributed system comprising n replicas are provided. According to one set of embodiments, the replicas can execute, during a view v of the BFT protocol, a first voting round comprising communicating instances of a first type of COMMIT certificate among the replicas. Further, when 2f+1 instances of the first type of COMMIT certificate associated with view v have been received by the replicas, the replicas can execute a second voting round comprising communicating instances of a second type of COMMIT certificate among the replicas. If 2f+1 instances of the second type of COMMIT certificate associated with view v are not received by the replicas within a predetermined timeout period, a view change can be initiated from view v to a view v+1.
