Four documents, the same five questions.
No throughput league table and no yield. The cells are what this library is willing to say about the text.
| Question | The Byzantine Generals Problem |
|---|---|
| What the text proposes | With oral messages, more than two thirds must be loyal. With signed messages, any number of traitors can be tolerated if a loyal commander is heard. |
| Who may write | Leslie Lamport, Robert Shostak and Marshall Pease |
| What is settled | Oral messages can be forged by the receiver. |
| Load-bearing assumption | The oral-message bound does not apply to a chain with a known stake weight. |
| What this library says afterwards | A reading of the public document. Not a copy of it, and not a claim about a later network that reused the name. |
| Rights | Official external source only |
