Abstract

This paper presents a Byzantine Agreement protocol with n = 8t + 1, optimal number of rounds (namely min {f + 2, t + 1} where f is number of actual faults), and messages of linear size (namely m ≤ n + O(log n), where m stands for message size). All previous protocols that stop in optimal time and tolerate t = O(n) faults require messages of size at least O(n2). The new protocol uses a novel technique called Reconstructed Traversal which is based on the Reconstruction Principle and on the Coordinated Traversal protocol.
