Circumventing FLP Sample Clauses

Circumventing FLP. One way of circumventing the FLP result is through randomization. Xxxxxx and Xxxxx’s algorithm, for exam- ple, relies on the assumption that if agents keep exchang- ing messages in rounds, then there is a non-zero prob- ability that they will all eventually receive the same set of messages in some round, a property they labeled fair scheduling [4]. Somewhat the same principle lies in Ra- bin’s [35] and Ben-Or’s [3] protocols, in which agents rely on a random bit generator to eventually chose the same bit as proposal. If queried in rounds by the agents, then for every round there is a non zero probability that all agents chose the same random bit and agreement is reached with probability 1.
