Byzantine Machine Learning Made Easy By Resilient Averaging of Momentums

Rachid Guerraoui, Nirupam Gupta, Rafaël Benjamin Pinot, Sadegh Farhadkhani, John Stephan

Byzantine resilience emerged as a prominent topic within the distributed machine learning community. Essentially, the goal is to enhance distributed optimization algorithms, such as distributed SGD, in a way that guarantees convergence despite the presence ...

GARFIELD: System Support for Byzantine Machine Learning (Regular Paper)

Rachid Guerraoui, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault, Arsany Hany Abdelmessih Guirguis

We present GARFIELD, a library to transparently make machine learning (ML) applications, initially built with popular (but fragile) frameworks, e.g., TensorFlow and PyTorch, Byzantine–resilient. GARFIELD relies on a novel object–oriented design, reducing t ...

Scalable Byzantine Reliable Broadcast

Rachid Guerraoui, Matej Pavlovic, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi, Matteo Monti

Byzantine reliable broadcast is a powerful primitive that allows a set of processes to agree on a message from a designated sender, even if some processes (including the sender) are Byzantine. Existing broadcast protocols for this setting scale poorly, as ...

Byzantine Agreement with Homonyms

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec

So far, the distributed computing community has either assumed that all the processes of a distributed system have distinct identifiers or, more rarely, that the processes are anonymous and have no identifiers. These are two extremes of the same general mo ...

Abstractions for Solving Consensus and Related Problems with Byzantine Faults

Zarko Milosevic

We become increasingly dependent on online services; therefore, their availability and correct behavior become increasingly important. Software replication is a popular technique for ensuring that computer systems continue to provide a correct service even ...

Timing Analysis of Leader-Based and Decentralized Byzantine Consensus Algorithms

André Schiper, Martin Hutle, Fatemeh Borran

We compare in an analytical way two leader-based and decentralized algorithms (that is, algorithms that do not use a leader) for Byzantine consensus with strong validity. We show that for \emph{the algorithms we analyzed}, in most cases, the decentralized ...

Generic construction of consensus algorithms for benign and Byzantine faults

André Schiper, Zarko Milosevic, Olivier Rütti

The paper proposes a generic consensus algorithm that highlights the basic and common features of known consensus algorithms. The parameters of the generic algorithm encapsulate the core differences between various consensus algorithms, including leader-ba ...

Unifying Byzantine Consensus Algorithms with Weak Interactive Consistency

André Schiper, Martin Hutle, Zarko Milosevic

The paper considers the consensus problem in a partially synchronous system with Byzantine processes. In this context, the literature distinguishes authenticated Byzantine faults, where messages can be signed by the sending process (with the assumption tha ...

Abstractions for asynchronous distributed computing with malicious players

In modern distributed systems, failures are the norm rather than the exception. In many cases, these failures are not benign. Settings such as the Internet might incur malicious (also called Byzantine or arbitrary) behavior and asynchrony. As a result, and ...
