Contention-Aware Cooperation

Authors: Timothé Albouy, Davide Frey, Mathieu Gestin, Michel Raynal, and François Taïani

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 361, 29th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2025)

Abstract
As shown by Reliable Broadcast and Consensus, cooperation among a set of independent computing entities (sequential processes) is crucial in fault-tolerant distributed computing. Considering n-process asynchronous message-passing systems where some processes may be Byzantine, this paper introduces a novel cooperation abstraction, Contention-Aware Cooperation (CAC). While Reliable Broadcast is a one-to-n cooperation abstraction and Consensus is an n-to-n cooperation abstraction, CAC is a d-to-n cooperation abstraction where d (1 ≤ d ≤ n) varies with each run and remains unknown to the processes. Correct processes accept the same set of 𝓁 pairs ⟨ v,i ⟩ (v is the value proposed by p_i) from the d proposer processes, where 1 ≤ 𝓁 ≤ d and (as d) 𝓁 remains unknown to the processes (except in specific cases). Those 𝓁 values are accepted one at a time, potentially in different orders at each process. In addition, CAC provides each process with an imperfect oracle that provides insights into the values that they may accept in the future. Interestingly, the CAC abstraction is particularly efficient in favorable circumstances, when the oracle becomes accurate, which processes can detect. To illustrate its practical utility, the paper details two applications leveraging CAC: a fast consensus implementation optimized for low contention (named Cascading Consensus), and a novel naming problem that can be solved under full asynchrony. All algorithms presented require signatures.

Resolving Conflicts with Grace: Dynamically Concurrent Universality

Authors: Petr Kuznetsov and Nathan Josia Schrodt

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 361, 29th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2025)

Abstract
Synchronization is the major obstacle to scalability in distributed computing. Concurrent operations on the shared data engage in synchronization when they encounter a conflict, i.e., their effects depend on the order in which they are applied. Ideally, one would like to detect conflicts in a dynamic manner, i.e., adjusting to the current system state. Indeed, it is very common that two concurrent operations conflict only in some rarely occurring states. In this paper, we define the notion of dynamic concurrency: an operation employs strong synchronization primitives only if it has to arbitrate with concurrent operations, given the current system state. We then present a dynamically concurrent universal construction.

Morpheus Consensus: Excelling on Trails and Autobahns

Authors: Andrew Lewis-Pye and Ehud Shapiro

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 361, 29th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2025)

Abstract
Recent research in consensus has often focussed on protocols for State-Machine-Replication (SMR) that can handle high throughputs. Such state-of-the-art protocols (generally DAG-based) induce undue overhead when the needed throughput is low, or else exhibit unnecessarily-poor latency and communication complexity during periods of low throughput. Here we present Morpheus Consensus, which naturally morphs from a quiescent low-throughput leaderless blockchain protocol to a high-throughput leader-based DAG protocol and back, excelling in latency and complexity in both settings. During high-throughout, Morpheus pars with state-of-the-art DAG-based protocols, including Autobahn [Giridharan et al., 2024]. During low-throughput, Morpheus exhibits competitive complexity and lower latency than standard protocols such as PBFT [Castro et al., 1999] and Tendermint [Buchman, 2016; Buchman et al., 2018], which in turn do not perform well during high-throughput. The key idea of Morpheus is that as long as blocks do not conflict (due to Byzantine behaviour, network delays, or high-throughput simultaneous production) it produces a forkless blockchain, promptly finalizing each block upon arrival. It assigns a leader only if one is needed to resolve conflicts, in a manner and with performance not unlike Autobahn.

Mining Inter-Document Argument Structures in Scientific Papers for an Argument Web

Authors: Florian Ruosch, Cristina Sarasua, and Abraham Bernstein

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 3 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 3

Abstract
In Argument Mining, predicting argumentative relations between texts (or spans) remains one of the most challenging aspects, even more so in the cross-document setting. This paper makes three key contributions to advance research in this domain. We first extend an existing dataset, the Sci-Arg corpus, by annotating it with explicit inter-document argumentative relations, thereby allowing arguments to be distributed over several documents forming an Argument Web; these new annotations are published using Semantic Web technologies (RDF, OWL). Second, we explore and evaluate three automated approaches for predicting these inter-document argumentative relations, establishing critical baselines on the new dataset. We find that a simple classifier based on discourse indicators with access to context outperforms neural methods. Third, we conduct a comparative analysis of these approaches for both intra- and inter-document settings, identifying statistically significant differences in results that indicate the necessity of distinguishing between these two scenarios. Our findings highlight significant challenges in this complex domain and open crucial avenues for future research on the Argument Web of Science, particularly for those interested in leveraging Semantic Web technologies and knowledge graphs to understand scholarly discourse. With this, we provide the first stepping stones in the form of a benchmark dataset, three baseline methods, and an initial analysis for a systematic exploration of this field relevant to the Web of Data and Science.

Kudzu: Fast and Simple High-Throughput BFT

Authors: Victor Shoup, Jakub Sliwinski, and Yann Vonlanthen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 356, 39th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2025)

Abstract
We present Kudzu, a high-throughput atomic broadcast protocol with an integrated fast path. Our contribution is based on the combination of two lines of work. Firstly, our protocol achieves finality in just two rounds of communication if all but p out of n = 3f + 2p + 1 participating replicas behave correctly, where f is the number of Byzantine faults that are tolerated. Due to the seamless integration of the fast path, even in the presence of more than p faults, our protocol maintains state-of-the-art characteristics. Secondly, our protocol utilizes the bandwidth of participating replicas in a balanced way, alleviating the bottleneck at the leader, and thus enabling high throughput. This is achieved by disseminating blocks using erasure codes. Despite combining a novel set of advantages, Kudzu is remarkably simple: intricacies such as "progress certificates", complex view changes, and speculative execution are avoided.

Cache Timing Leakages in Zero-Knowledge Protocols

Authors: Shibam Mukherjee, Christian Rechberger, and Markus Schofnegger

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 354, 7th Conference on Advances in Financial Technologies (AFT 2025)

Abstract
The area of modern zero-knowledge proof systems has seen a significant rise in popularity over the last couple of years, with new techniques and optimized constructions emerging on a regular basis. As the field matures, the aspect of implementation attacks becomes more relevant, however side-channel attacks on zero-knowledge proof systems have seen surprisingly little treatment so far. In this paper, we give an overview of potential attack vectors and show that some of the underlying finite field libraries, and implementations of heavily used components like hash functions using them, are vulnerable w.r.t. cache attacks on CPUs. On the positive side, we demonstrate that the computational overhead to protect against these attacks is relatively small.

Trustless Bridges via Random Sampling Light Clients

Authors: Bhargav Nagaraja Bhatt, Fatemeh Shirazi, and Alistair Stewart

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 354, 7th Conference on Advances in Financial Technologies (AFT 2025)

Abstract
The increasing number of blockchain projects introduced annually has led to a pressing need for secure and efficient interoperability solutions. Currently, the lack of such solutions forces end-users to rely on centralized intermediaries, contradicting the core principle of decentralization and trust minimization in blockchain technology. We propose a decentralized and efficient interoperability solution (aka Bridge Protocol) that operates without additional trust assumptions, relying solely on the Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) properties of the two chains being connected. In particular, relayers (actors that exchange messages between networks) are permissionless and decentralized, hence eliminating any single point of failure. We introduce Random Sampling, a novel technique for on-chain light clients to efficiently follow the history of PoS blockchains by reducing the signature verifications required. Here, the randomness is drawn on-chain, for example, using Ethereum’s RANDAO. We analyze the security of the bridge from a crypto- economic perspective and provide a framework to derive the security parameters. This includes handling subtle concurrency issues and randomness bias in strawman designs. While the protocol is applicable to various PoS chains, we demonstrate the protocol’s practical feasibility by showcasing an instantiated bridge between Polkadot and Ethereum (currently deployed), and discuss some practical security challenges. Furthermore, we evaluate the efficiency of our on-chain light client verifier (implemented as an Ethereum smart contract) against SNARK-based approaches, demonstrating significantly lower gas costs for signature verification - even for validator sets up to 10⁶.

Multivariate Exploration of Metric Dilation

Authors: Aritra Banik, Fedor V. Fomin, Petr A. Golovach, Tanmay Inamdar, Satyabrata Jana, and Saket Saurabh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
Let G be a weighted graph embedded in a metric space (M, d_M). The vertices of G correspond to the points in M, with the weight of each edge uv being the distance d_M(u,v) between their respective points in M. The dilation (or stretch) of G is defined as the minimum factor t such that, for any pair of vertices u,v, the distance between u and v - represented by the weight of a shortest u,v-path - is at most t⋅ d_M(u,v). We study Dilation t-Augmentation, where the objective is, given a metric M, a graph G, and numerical values k and t, to determine whether G can be transformed into a graph with dilation t by adding at most k edges. Our primary focus is on the scenario where the metric M is the shortest path metric of an unweighted graph Γ. Even in this specific case, Dilation t-Augmentation remains computationally challenging. In particular, the problem is W[2]-hard parameterized by k when Γ is a complete graph, already for t = 2. Our main contribution lies in providing new insights into the impact of combinations of various parameters on the computational complexity of the problem. We establish the following. - The parameterized dichotomy of the problem with respect to dilation t, when the graph G is sparse: Parameterized by k, the problem is FPT for graphs excluding a biclique K_{d,d} as a subgraph for t ≤ 2 and the problem is W[1]-hard for t ≥ 3 even if G is a forest consisting of disjoint stars. - The problem is FPT parameterized by the combined parameter k+t+Δ, where Δ is the maximum degree of the graph G or Γ.

Efficient Approximation Schemes for Scheduling on a Stochastic Number of Machines

Authors: Leah Epstein and Asaf Levin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
We study three two-stage optimization problems with a similar structure and different objectives. In the first stage of each problem, the goal is to assign input jobs of positive sizes to unsplittable bags. After this assignment is decided, the realization of the number of identical machines that will be available is revealed. Then, in the second stage, the bags are assigned to machines. The probability vector of the number of machines in the second stage is known to the algorithm as part of the input before making the decisions of the first stage. Thus, the vector of machine completion times is a random variable. The goal of the first problem is to minimize the expected value of the makespan of the second stage schedule, while the goal of the second problem is to maximize the expected value of the minimum completion time of the machines in the second stage solution. The goal of the third problem is to minimize the 𝓁_𝔭 norm for a fixed 𝔭 > 1, where the norm is applied on machines' completion times vectors. Each one of the first two problems admits a PTAS as Buchem et al. showed recently. Here we significantly improve all their results by designing an EPTAS for each one of these problems. We also design an EPTAS for 𝓁_𝔭 norm minimization for any 𝔭 > 1.
