PrimeTime:一种面向开放网络的有限时间共识协议

PrimeTime: A Finite-Time Consensus Protocol for Open Networks

Henry W. Abrahamson, Ermin Wei

AI总结:

本文提出PrimeTime协议,利用素数性质在开放网络中高效共享小整数数据,以更少比特实现快速有限时间共识,并提升对智能体进出网络的鲁棒性。

摘要:

在需要智能体之间达成共识但不期望平均共识的分布式问题中,每个智能体在达成共识之前可能不仅需要知道网络中其他智能体的数据,还需要知道每份数据的来源。然而,传输带有ID的大型数据表会导致智能体消息的大小急剧增加,而为了保持消息较小而截断为较少数据则可能导致达成共识的速度出现问题。此外,许多现有共识协议对智能体离开和进入网络并不鲁棒。我们提出PrimeTime,一种利用素数性质在开放网络中快速高效地共享小整数数据的新型通信协议。对于足够小的网络或小整数数据,我们证明由PrimeTime形成的消息比通过简单将数据和ID制成表格进行传输所形成的消息需要更少的比特。

英文摘要:

In distributed problems where consensus between agents is required but average consensus is not desired, it can be necessary for each agent to know not only the data of each other agent in the network, but also the origin of each piece of data before consensus can be reached. However, transmitting large tables of data with IDs can cause the size of an agent's message to increase dramatically, while truncating down to fewer pieces of data to keep the message size small can lead to problems with the speed of achieving consensus. Also, many existing consensus protocols are not robust against agents leaving and entering the network. We introduce PrimeTime, a novel communication protocol that exploits the properties of prime numbers to quickly and efficiently share small integer data across an open network. For sufficiently small networks or small integer data, we show that messages formed by PrimeTime require fewer bits than messages formed by simply tabularizing the data and IDs to be transmitted.
