摘要
Consider a system of n units, at most t < n 2 of which are faulty. Suppose each unit is capable of testing any other unit for a possible fault, but that results of tests performed by faulty units might be incorrectly or even maliciously reported. We give an adaptive algorithm which identifies the faulty units in O(1 + log[ n t]t) rounds of testing using O(n) tests. Previous adaptive algorithms required at least t + logn rounds of testing and n + t - 1 tests. If t < n1-e, our algorithm runs within O(1) rounds. © 1990.
