A decentralized multiagent systems (MAS) is comprised of autonomous agents who interact with each other via asynchronous messaging. A protocol specifies a MAS by specifying the constraints on messaging between agents. Agents enact protocols by applying their own internal decision making. Various kinds of faults may occur when enacting a protocol. For example, messages may be lost, duplicates may be delivered, and agents may crash during the processing of a message. Our contribution in this paper is demonstrating how information protocols support rich fault tolerance mechanisms, and in a manner that is unanticipated by alternative approaches for engineering decentralized MAS.
