BROADCAST protocol

[Vincent HERBERT]

Hi everybody,

In the MPC literature, there are tricky discussions on what "broadcast" means.

Can we consider implementing a BROADCAST protocol in its simplest form ?

That is, each party sends the same message to the N - 1 other parties via N - 1 point-to-point channels.

Thanks,

Vincent Herbert (Researcher at EPITA Paris)

Depends on whether you want guaranteed broadcast, or
only care about abort if you find an error.

There is a HUGE literature on broadcast, and lots
of different definitions/protocols. This book
is essentially devoted to them...
