ByShard: Sharding in a Byzantine Environment

Summary: ByShard provides a unifying framework for sharded, Byzantine-resilient data management. Efficient 2PC/2PL in Byzantine settings with minimal primitive cost, eighteen multi-shard protocols, and ACID-compliant, scalable trade-offs yielding high throughput.
