We flesh out some details of the recently proposed Simplex atomic broadcast protocol, and modify it so that leaders disperse blocks in a more communication-efficient fashion.

We also present several variations, including a variant that supports "stable leaders", variants that incorporate very recently developed data disseminati...| IACR Cryptology ePrint Archive
