N2 - We present a protocol for reliable communication between two processors via an unreliable, and possibly even malicious, communication media. Reliable communication means that all messages are accepted in the same order as sent, with no modifications, omissions, insertions or duplications. Our protocol is resilient to processor crashes (in which the entire memory of the processor is erased), and duplication and recording on the link. Our approach is probabilistic. Namely, for the worst case behavior of the underlying unreliable channel, our protocol guarantees reliable communication with very high probability. The probabilistic approach is justified in light of impossibility result with respect to processor crashes.
