Committee Size. · The fraction h > 2 of weighted honest users in Algorand must translate into a “sufficiently honest” committee for BA⋆. BA⋆ has two parameters at its disposal: τ , which con- trols the expected committee size, and T , which controls the number of votes needed to reach consensus (T τ ). We would like T to be as small as possible for liveness, but the smaller T is, the larger τ needs to be, to ensure that an adversary does not obtain enough votes by chance. Since a larger com- mittee translates into a higher bandwidth cost, we choose two different parameter sets: Xxxxxx and τfinal for the final step, which ensures an overwhelming probability of safety regardless of strong synchrony, and Tstep and τstep for all other steps, which achieve a reasonable trade-off between liveness, safety, and performance. To make the constraints on τstep and Tstep precise, let us denote the number of honest committee members by д and the malicious ones by b; in expectation, b +д = τstep, but b +д can vary since it is chosen by sortition. To ensure liveness, as · we prove in Appendix C.2, BA⋆ requires 1 д +b ≤ Tstep · τstep bits are also random. The common coin is used only when CountVotes() times out, giving sufficient time for all votes to propagate through the network. If the committee member and д > Tstep τstep. Due to the probabilistic nature of how committee members are chosen, there is always some small chance that the b and д for some step fail to satisfy the above constraints, and BA⋆’s goal is to make this probability negligible. Figure 3 plots the expected committee size τstep that is needed to satisfy both constraints, as a function of h, for a probability of × violation of 5 10−9; Appendix B describes this computation in more detail. The figure shows a trade-off: the weaker the assumption on the fraction of money held by honest users − ×

Any representative(s) attending such meetings during their regularly scheduled hours of work shall not lose regular earnings as a result of such attendance. (c) It is agreed that the topic of a rehabilitation program for drug and alcohol abuse is an appropriate topic for the Labour-Management Committee. It is also agreed that the topic of the utilization of full-time and part-time staff is an appropriate topic for the Labour-Management Committee.
