ABSTRACT
We demonstrate a framework that simplifies the performance evaluation of fault tolerant State Machine Replication in the permissioned model. ABCperf offers a message passing abstraction with eventual delivery on top of which interchangeable Atomic Broadcast algorithms and decentralized applications can be independently implemented. Varying network quality (i.e., latency, packet loss) and attacker behavior (i.e., omission faults) can be directly configured and are emulated by the ABCperf core. The framework allows the real-time manipulation of configuration options and visualizes performance indicators and statistics in real time.

Fault Injection and Dependability Evaluation of Fault-Tolerant Systems
The authors describe a dependability evaluation method based on fault injection that establishes the link between the experimental evaluation of the fault tolerance process and the fault occurrence process. The main characteristics of a fault injection ...
On Fault Representativeness of Software Fault Injection
The injection of software faults in software components to assess the impact of these faults on other components or on the system as a whole, allowing the evaluation of fault tolerance, is relatively new compared to decades of research on hardware fault ...
