Sentence examples for increasing the timeout from inspiring English sources

An efficient solution is increasing the timeout when a correct process requires that.

We will refer to this parameterizations by A. Then we consider the approach used by PBFT [4]: increasing the timeout exponentially (whenever the view changes).

We will refer to this parameterization by B. Finally, we propose another strategy, which consists of increasing the timeout exponentially every t+1 views.

Increasing the timeout in every phase provides a simple solution, in which all processes adopt the same timeout for a given phase.

We now discuss different adaptive strategies for the timeout value Γ v p ). First, we consider the approach of [7]: increasing the timeout linearly (whenever the view changes).

The main question is when to increase the timeout.

The approach proposed in [7] is to increase the timeout linearly, while recent works, e.g., PBFT [4], increase the timeout exponentially.

However, this is not an efficient solution, since processes might increase the timeout unnecessarily.

This is because processes might increase the timeout at different rounds.

The problem with this solution is that different processes might increase the timeout at different points in time.

In the context of leader-based algorithms, this strategy ensures that, if the timeout is large enough to terminate the started consensus instances, then a Byzantine leader will not be able to force correct processes to increase the timeout.
