  2. Wikipedia:Reducing consensus to an algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reducing...

    where: A = argument strength/credibility; N = number of relevant sources supporting the argument; R = the reliability of the sources.; It's not really this simple. Each of the sources (call them S 1, etc.) has its own R value (R 1, etc., best expressed as a decimal value, where 0 is garbage and 1 is the most reliable source imaginable), so it would really need to be a recursive function to ...

  3. Confidential Consortium Framework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidential_Consortium...

    Originally developed in 2019 by Microsoft [2] under the name Coco and later rebranded to Confidential Consortium Framework (CCF), it is an open-source framework for developing of a new category of performant applications that focuses on the optimization of secure multi-party computation and data availability.

  4. Conflict-free replicated data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict-free_replicated...

    State-based CRDTs (also called convergent replicated data types, or CvRDTs) are defined by two types, a type for local states and a type for actions on the state, together with three functions: A function to produce an initial state, a merge function of states, and a function to apply an action to update a state.

  5. Paxos (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paxos_(computer_science)

    Generalized consensus explores the relationship between the operations of the replicated state machine and the consensus protocol that implements it. [16] The main discovery involves optimizations of Paxos when conflicting proposals could be applied in any order. i.e., when the proposed operations are commutative operations for the state ...

  6. De novo sequence assemblers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_novo_sequence_assemblers

    These algorithms typically do not work well for larger read sets, as they do not easily reach a global optimum in the assembly, and do not perform well on read sets that contain repeat regions. [1] Early de novo sequence assemblers, such as SEQAID [ 2 ] (1984) and CAP [ 3 ] (1992), used greedy algorithms, such as overlap-layout-consensus (OLC ...

  8. Consensus (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_(computer_science)

    The Paxos consensus algorithm by Leslie Lamport, and variants of it such as Raft, are used pervasively in widely deployed distributed and cloud computing systems. These algorithms are typically synchronous, dependent on an elected leader to make progress, and tolerate only crashes and not Byzantine failures.

  9. Medical consensus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_consensus

    Consensus statements differ from medical guidelines, another form of state-of-the-science public statements. According to the NIH, "Consensus statements synthesize new information, largely from recent or ongoing medical research, that has implications for reevaluation of routine medical practices. They do not give specific algorithms or ...
