Consortium Blockchain Consensus Algorithm Based on PBFT by ZHOU Yi-hua, FANG Jia-bo, JIA Yu-xin, JIA Li-yuan, SHI Wei-min

“…Focusing on the problems of poor scalability,the random selection of primary nodes,and high network overhead in the practical-Byzantine-fault-tolerant consensus algorithm,this paper proposes a Byzantine-fault-tolerant consensus algorithm based on credit evaluation mechanism.First of all,the system sets different roles for the nodes in the cluster and assigns different permissions to the nodes according to different roles,so that the nodes with different permissions can enter and exit the network dynamically.Secondly,the voting mechanism and follow-the-satoshi algorithm based on credibility are designed to ensure the security and fairness of the election.Finally,in the aspect of the consensus process,an optimized two-stage Byzantine-fault-tolerant consensus is proposed to reduce the network overhead in the PBFT consensus process.Experiments show that the consensus algorithm based on the credit evaluation mechanism proposed in this paper has the characteristics of high dynamic,election security,and low cost compared with the PBFT algorithm which is suitable for the alliance chain.…”
