“…Last but not the least, this section describes how FLP can be circumvented by weakening the very definition of consensus, i.e., by modifying it. Currently, we are aware of a single type of algorithm that fits in this category in the system model that we consider in the paper: algorithms based on the condition-based approach (Mostefaoui et al, 2003b(Mostefaoui et al, , 2004Friedman et al, 2002). For crash faults, there is also k-set consensus, which allows k different values to be decided (Chaudhuri, 1993).…”
