Abstract
An asynchronous state machine replication solution in a system of replicas includes executing multiple instances of a consensus protocol, referred to as leader-based views (LBVs) in each replica, where each replica is a leader participant in one of the LBV instances. Each replica drives a decision based on the consensus being reached among the LBV instances, rather than relying the expiration of timers and view changes to drive progress.
