Preserving Peer Replicas By Rate-Limited Sampled Voting in LOCKSS
<|reference_start|>Preserving Peer Replicas By Rate-Limited Sampled Voting in LOCKSS: The LOCKSS project has developed and deployed in a world-wide test a peer-to-peer system for preserving access to journals and other archival information published on the Web. It consists of a large number of independent, low-cost, persistent web caches that cooperate to detect and repair damage to their content by voting in "opinion polls." Based on this experience, we present a design for and simulations of a novel protocol for voting in systems of this kind. It incorporates rate limitation and intrusion detection to ensure that even some very powerful adversaries attacking over many years have only a small probability of causing irrecoverable damage before being detected.<|reference_end|>
