Episode 15: Chatting about consensus algorithms with Robert Habermeier

Published: March 8, 2018, 10 a.m.

Fredrik has a chat about consensus algorithms with Parity Technologies in-house consensus expert Robert Habermeier. We cover what a consensus algorithm is and how they work. We try to explain some common terms like safety and liveness, what a fork choice rule is and how real-world constraints like networking play a role in your algorithm design. -- Robert Habermeier (https://twitter.com/rphmeier)
