Abstract

This paper presents the abstraction of open consensus and argues for its use as an effective component for building reliable agreement protocols in practical asynchronous systems where processes and links can crash and recover. The specification of open consensus has a decoupled, on‐demand and re‐entrant flavour that make its use very efficient, especially in terms of forced logs, which are known to be major sources of overhead in distributed systems. We illustrate the use of open consensus as a basic building block to develop a modular, yet efficient, total‐order broadcast protocol. Finally, we describe our Java implementation of our open‐consensus abstraction and we convey our efficiency claims through some practical performance measures.
