Threshold Byzantine Quorum System and Distributed Storage
Distributed storage use erasure coding and threshold scheme to provide security and reliability.We present threshold Byzantine quorum system (TBQS)
which can be used to design reliable storage strategy where up to one fourth of the servers might exhibit Byzantine faults.TBQS can provide fault-tolerance and serviced without interruption together with erasure coding or threshold schemes.We discussed the existence of TBQS
and proposed two types of TBQS called threshold f-masking system and grid TBQS respectively.We also yield a read-write protocol base on TBQS that is both time-efficient and reliable.
