In the late 1980s, SRC (Systems Research Center, DEC was founded in 1984, Lamport also worked here) Build a fault-tolerant file system called ECHO. The system's builders claim that the system can guarantee consistency in the event of any number of non-byzantine errors, and as long as more than half of the processes work properly, It can keep the system moving forward. For most systems like this, it's very simple when there are no errors, but to handle all the errors that the implementer can think of, it needs a very Complex algorithms. I feel that what they are doing is basically not And intend to prove it. The result is counterproductive. In the process, I found the Paxos algorithm, which is the one described in this article. The core of the algorithm is actually a three-phase consistency protocol. Dale, then, or now I have always thought that Paxos is a very important algorithm. Before writing this article, I used the description of General Byzantine to make the consistency problem successfully accepted (that is, the paper was translated with the help of The Byzantine General Problem Guibas). Forged Greek dialect. (The title of the thesis was proposed by Peter Ladkin.) By describing a lost civilization, both adding fun and exempting me from boring details, just declare some of the parliamentary agreement directly The details have been lost. In order to make this visual description more realistic, I also put on a Stetson felt hat as* on a small bottle to dress up as an Indiana Jones style archaeologist, and made several speeches. My attempt unfortunately failed. Those who attended my speech only remembered Indiana Joan. Style, not the algorithm. The people reading the paper seem to be disturbed by the Greek story inside so that they don't understand the algorithm at all. Among the people I wrote to them, Nancy Lynch (distributed theory) Studying Big Bull, <
