Running Distributed Systems like Clockwork

Authors: Karan Newatia, Robert Gifford, Qingjie Lu, Andreas Haeberlen, and Linh Thi Xuan Phan

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 139, 1st New Ideas in Networked Systems (NINeS 2026)

Abstract
Distributed Systems are commonly built using a set of standard assumptions: we assume that message delays are unbounded, that any packet can be lost in the network, and that clocks cannot be closely synchronized. On the one hand, these conservative assumptions result in robust systems that can operate reliably in a wide variety of conditions. On the other hand, they also force the system to do a lot of complex ad-hoc coordination and thus limit the performance it can achieve. In this paper, we take a look at what lies beyond this standard model. We observe that, on modern hardware in a single-tenant data center, distributed systems are able to closely coordinate and essentially "run like clockwork" with very little effort. If we are willing to additionally rule out some worst-case failure scenarios, this results in a large performance improvement, both in practice and even in theory. We demonstrate this effect using state-machine replication (SMR) as a case study: our SMR protocol, Watchmaker, exceeds the throughput of state-of-the-art algorithms by two orders of magnitude, and it requires only half as many replicas to tolerate the same number of faults.

Formalizing Rollback Netcodes for Robust and Real-Time Client-Server Architectures

Authors: Yérom-David Bromberg, Jérémie Decouchant, Manon Sourisseau, and François Taïani

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

Abstract
The rapid growth of the gaming industry has made netcodes (the part of an online game’s source code that handles networking and synchronization) a critical component of the online multiplayer experience. Among various approaches, rollback netcodes have become a popular choice for real-time games due to their ability to enhance responsiveness and player immersion. However, despite their widespread adoption, these netcodes remain susceptible to subtle latency-based attacks that can be challenging to detect. Notably, while rollback netcodes play a critical role in the gaming industry and share similarities with synchronization mechanisms in distributed systems, they have received relatively limited attention in academic research. In this work, we present a formal specification of rollback netcodes and identify key behavioral properties and requirements to strengthen their resilience against latency-based attacks that are prevalent in gaming, such as lag-switch and DDoS attacks. Our analysis allows us to explore the trade-offs between preserving immersive gameplay and ensuring security. Our findings reveal that ideal immersion requires strict assumptions about network latency, which are unattainable in adversarial environments where message delays are inevitable.

From Permissioned to Proof-of-Stake Consensus

Authors: Jovan Komatovic, Andrew Lewis-Pye, Joachim Neu, Tim Roughgarden, and Ertem Nusret Tas

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

Abstract
This paper presents the first generic compiler that transforms any permissioned consensus protocol into a proof-of-stake permissionless consensus protocol. For each of the following properties, if the initial permissioned protocol satisfies that property in the partially synchronous setting, the consequent proof-of-stake protocol also satisfies that property in the partially synchronous and quasi-permissionless setting (with the same fault-tolerance): consistency; liveness; optimistic responsiveness; every composable log-specific property; and message complexity of a given order. Moreover, our transformation ensures that the output protocol satisfies accountability (identifying culprits in the event of a consistency violation), whether or not the original permissioned protocol satisfied it.

Multi-Objective Memory Bandwidth Regulation and Cache Partitioning for Multicore Real-Time Systems

Authors: Binqi Sun, Zhihang Wei, Andrea Bastoni, Debayan Roy, Mirco Theile, Tomasz Kloda, Rodolfo Pellizzoni, and Marco Caccamo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 335, 37th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2025)

Abstract
Memory bandwidth regulation and cache partitioning are widely used techniques for achieving predictable timing in real-time computing systems. Combined with partitioned scheduling, these methods require careful co-allocation of tasks and resources to cores, as task execution times strongly depend on available allocated resources. To address this challenge, this paper presents a 0-1 linear program for task-resource co-allocation, along with a multi-objective heuristic designed to minimize resource usage while guaranteeing schedulability under a preemptive EDF scheduling policy. Our heuristic employs a multi-layer framework, where an outer layer explores resource allocations using Pareto-pruned search, and an inner layer optimizes task allocation by solving a knapsack problem using dynamic programming. To evaluate the performance of the proposed optimization algorithm, we profile real-world benchmarks on an embedded AMD UltraScale+ ZCU102 platform, with fine-grained resource partitioning enabled by the Jailhouse hypervisor, leveraging cache set partitioning and MemGuard for memory bandwidth regulation. Experiments based on the benchmarking results show that the proposed 0-1 linear program outperforms existing mixed-integer programs by finding more optimal solutions within the same time limit. Moreover, the proposed multi-objective multi-layer heuristic performs consistently better than the state-of-the-art multi-resource-task co-allocation algorithm in terms of schedulability, resource usage, number of non-dominated solutions, and computational efficiency.

On the Metric Nature of (Differential) Logical Relations

Authors: Ugo Dal Lago, Naohiko Hoshino, and Paolo Pistone

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 337, 10th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025)

Abstract
Differential logical relations are a method to measure distances between higher-order programs. They differ from standard methods based on program metrics in that differences between functional programs are themselves functions, relating errors in input with errors in output, this way providing a more fine grained, contextual, information. The aim of this paper is to clarify the metric nature of differential logical relations. While previous work has shown that these do not give rise, in general, to (quasi-)metric spaces nor to partial metric spaces, we show that the distance functions arising from such relations, that we call quasi-quasi-metrics, can be related to both quasi-metrics and partial metrics, the latter being also captured by suitable relational definitions. Moreover, we exploit such connections to deduce some new compositional reasoning principles for program differences.

A Mixed Linear and Graded Logic: Proofs, Terms, and Models

Authors: Victoria Vollmer, Danielle Marshall, Harley Eades III, and Dominic Orchard

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 326, 33rd EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2025)

Abstract
Graded modal logics generalise standard modal logics via families of modalities indexed by an algebraic structure whose operations mediate between the different modalities. The graded "of-course" modality !_r captures how many times a proposition is used and has an analogous interpretation to the of-course modality from linear logic; the of-course modality from linear logic can be modelled by a linear exponential comonad and graded of-course can be modelled by a graded linear exponential comonad. Benton showed in his seminal paper on Linear/Non-Linear logic that the of-course modality can be split into two modalities connecting intuitionistic logic with linear logic, forming a symmetric monoidal adjunction. Later, Fujii et al. demonstrated that every graded comonad can be decomposed into an adjunction and a "strict action". We give a similar result to Benton, leveraging Fujii et al.’s decomposition, showing that graded modalities can be split into two modalities connecting a graded logic with a graded linear logic. We propose a sequent calculus, its proof theory and categorical model, and a natural deduction system which we show is isomorphic to the sequent calculus system. Interestingly, our system can also be understood as Linear/Non-Linear logic composed with an action that adds the grading, further illuminating the shared principles between linear logic and a class of graded modal logics.

Dynamic Probabilistic Reliable Broadcast

Authors: João Paulo Bezerra, Veronika Anikina, Petr Kuznetsov, Liron Schiff, and Stefan Schmid

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 324, 28th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2024)

Abstract
Byzantine reliable broadcast is a fundamental primitive in distributed systems that allows a set of processes to agree on a message broadcast by a dedicated process, even when some of them are malicious (Byzantine). It guarantees that no two correct processes deliver different messages, and if a message is delivered by a correct process, every correct process eventually delivers one. Byzantine reliable broadcast protocols are known to scale poorly, as they require Ω(n²) message exchanges, where n is the number of system members. The quadratic cost can be explained by the inherent need for every process to relay a message to every other process. In this paper, we explore ways to overcome this limitation by casting the problem to the probabilistic setting. We propose a solution in which every broadcast message is validated by a small set of witnesses, which allows us to maintain low latency and small communication complexity. In order to tolerate the slow adaptive adversary, we dynamically select the witnesses through a novel stream-local hash function: given a stream of inputs, it generates a stream of output hashed values that adapts to small deviations of the inputs. Our performance analysis shows that the proposed solution exhibits significant scalability gains over state-of-the-art protocols.

Brief Announcement: Polygraph: Accountable Byzantine Agreement

Authors: Pierre Civit, Seth Gilbert, and Vincent Gramoli

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 179, 34th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2020)

Abstract
In this paper, we introduce Polygraph, the first accountable Byzantine consensus algorithm. If among n users f < n/3 are malicious then it ensures consensus, otherwise it eventually detects malicious users that cause disagreement. Polygraph is appealing for blockchains as it allows to totally order blocks in a chain whenever possible, hence avoiding double spending and, otherwise, to punish at least n/3 malicious users when a fork occurs. This problem is more difficult than it first appears. Blockchains typically run in open networks whose delays are hard to predict, hence one cannot build upon synchronous techniques [Andreas Haeberlen et al., 2007; Vitalik Buterin and Virgil Griffith, 2019]. One may exploit cryptographic evidence of PBFT-like consensus [Miguel Castro and Barbara Liskov, 2002], however detecting equivocation would be insufficient. We show that it is impossible without extra logs of at least Ω(n) rounds [Pierre Civit et al., 2019]. Each round of Polygraph exchanges O(n²) messages.

Abstracting out Byzantine Behavior

Authors: Peter Druschel, Andreas Haeberlen, and Petr Kouznetsov

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6371, From Security to Dependability (2007)

Abstract
Many distributed systems are designed to tolerate the presence of emph{Byzantine} failures: an individual process may arbitrarily deviate from the algorithm assigned to it. Depending on the application requirements, systems enjoy various levels of fault-tolerance. Systems based on state machine replication are able to emph{mask} failures so that their effect is not visible by the application. In contrast, cooperative peer-to-peer systems can tolerate bounded deviant behavior to some extent and therefore do not require masking, as long as each faulty node is emph{exposed}eventually. Finding an abstract way to reason about the levels of fault-tolerance is thus of immanent importance. We discuss how the information of deviant behavior can be abstracted out in the form of a emph{Byzantine failure detector} (BFD). We formally define a BFD abstraction, and we discuss two ways of using the abstraction: (1) monitoring systems in order to retroactively detect Byzantine failures and (2) enforcing systems in order to boost their level of fault-tolerance. Interestingly, the BFD formalism allowed us to determine the relative hardness of implementing two popular abstractions in distributed computing: state machine replication and weak interactive consistency.
