QuePaxa
Asynchronous consensus algorithm that escapes the tyranny of timeouts
QuePaxa is a crash fault-tolerant asynchronous consensus algorithm that improves upon Multi-Paxos, Raft, Rabia, and EPaxos. Its three main innovations are: an asynchronous consensus core with a one-round-trip fast path, hedging-delay instead of traditional timeouts, and dynamic runtime protocol tuning. The implementation is written in Go and includes integration tests and AWS deployment scripts for artifact evaluation against competing consensus algorithms.

The DEDIS team is working on projects related to large-scale collective authorities (cothorities), which distribute trust among a number of independent parties to allow scalable self-organizing communities. With no single trusted party, cothorities can secure software updates, provide public randomness, enable privacy-conscious medical-data sharing and a lot more. Other projects include communicating securely over insecure channels and fast, scalable, accountable anonymous communication.
