English abstract:
We extend a recently introduced epistemic reasoning frame-
work for multi-agent systems with byzantine faulty asynchronous agents
by incorporating features like reliable communication, time-bounded com-
munication, multicasting, synchronous and lockstep synchronous agents.
We use this extension framework for analyzing fault detection abilities
of synchronous and lockstep synchronous agents and show that even
perfectly synchronized clocks cannot be used to avoid "brain-in-a-vat"
scenarios.
Keywords:
fault-tolerant systems, byzantine distributed systems, epistemic logic, synchronous systems, lock-step synchronous systems
