Message scheduling is the process of determining the order and timing in which messages or transactions are processed within a distributed system. In blockchain networks, this refers to how validators or miners select and sequence transactions for inclusion in a block. Efficient message scheduling is critical for network performance, throughput, and fairness. It directly impacts the speed and cost of digital asset transfers.
Context
Message scheduling is a key area of optimization for blockchain scalability and efficiency, particularly in high-demand networks. Debates often surround mechanisms like priority fees, first-come-first-served, or more complex algorithms designed to prevent transaction censorship or front-running. News frequently covers network congestion and transaction fee spikes, which are often direct consequences of current message scheduling approaches and their limitations.
The Random Asynchronous Model replaces adversarial scheduling with a random one, unlocking deterministic BFT consensus protocols previously deemed impossible.
