Abstract

This paper considers the Byzantine agreement problem in a completely connected network of anonymous processors. In this network model the processors have no identifiers and can only detect the link through which a message is delivered. We present a polynomial-time agreement algorithm that requires 3⌊(n−t)t/(n−2t)⌋+4 rounds, where n>3t is the number of processors and t is the maximal number of faulty processors that the algorithm can tolerate. We also present an early-stopping variant of the algorithm.
