Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT)

Return to Consensus Mechanism

Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT) is a lightweight algorithm that solves the Byzantine General’s problems by letting users confirm the messages that have been delivered to them by performing a computation to evaluate the decision about the message’s validity.

The party then announces its decision to other nodes who ultimately process a decision over it. This way, the final decision relies upon the decisions retrieved from the other nodes.Webpage: BHARDWAJ
