We analyze the problem of efficiently storing large amounts
of data on a distributed set of servers that may be accessed
concurrently from multiple clients by sending messages
over an asynchronous network. Up to one third of the
servers and an arbitrary number of clients may be faulty
and exhibit Byzantine behavior. We provide the first simulation
of a multiple-writer multiple-reader atomic read/write
register using erasure-coding in this setting that achieves
optimal resilience and minimal storage overhead. Additionally,
we give the first implementation of non-skipping timestamps
which provides optimal resilience and withstands
Byzantine clients; it is based on threshold cryptography.
