State Machine Replication for the Masses with BFT-SMART
Open accessAbstract
The last fifteen years have seen an impressive amount of work on protocols for Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) state machine replication (SMR). However, there is still a need for practical and reliable software libraries implementing this technique. BFT-SMART is an open-source Java-based library implementing robust BFT state machine replication. Some of the key features of this library that distinguishes it from similar works (e.g., PBFT and UpRight) are improved reliability, modularity as a first-class property, multicore-awareness, reconfiguration support and a flexible programming interface. When compared to other SMR libraries, BFT-SMART achieves better performance and is able to withstand a number of real-world faults that previous implementations cannot.

“In contrast, modern BFT protocols have been confirmed to sustain tens of thousands of transactions with practically network-speed latencies, not only as prototypes (e.g., [35, 12, 3]) but also as practical systems [5].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
