Byzantine General's Problem
  • In Byzantine General's Problem, a group of generals plans to attack a city from different parts, for the attack to be successful all the generals have to attack simultaneously.
  • The Generals coordinate their attack by communicating through messages. The messages passed between generals can get changed or altered by a treacherous general.
  • In Distributed systems, the generals are analogous to nodes and the treacherous generals are the malicious/corrupted node also known as Byzantine nodes.
  • Distributed systems like blockchains have to devise solutions to overcome this problem and become Byzantine fault-tolerant systems.
