The middleware architecture of MAFTIA: A blueprint.

Technical Report DI/FCUL TR 00-6, Department of Computer Science, University of Lisbon, September 2000.

Abstract

In this paper, we present the middleware architecture of MAFTIA, an ESPRIT project aiming at developing an open architecture for transactional operations on the Internet. The former is a modular and scalable cryptographic group-oriented middleware suite, suitable for supporting reliable multi-party interactions under partial synchrony models, and subject to malicious as well as accidental faults.
