Principles of Blockchain Systems

This book is the first to present the state of the art and provide technical focus on the latest advances in the foundations of blockchain systems. It is a collaborative work between specialists in cryptography, distributed systems, formal languages, and economics, and addresses hot topics in blockchains from a theoretical perspective: cryptographic primitives, consensus, formalization of blockchain properties, game theory applied to blockchains, and economical issues. This book reflects the expertise of the various authors, and is intended to benefit researchers, students, and engineers who seek an understanding of the theoretical foundations of blockchains.

Blockchain and cryptocurrencies technologies and network structures: applications, implications and beyond

Blockchain technology is bringing together concepts and operations from several fields, including computing, communications networks, cryptography, and has broad implications and consequences thus encompassing a wide variety of domains and issues, including Network Science, computer science, economics, law, geography, etc. The aim of the paper is to provide a synthetic sketch of issues raised by the development of Blockchains and Cryptocurrencies, these issues are mainly presented through the link between on one hand the technological aspects, i.e. involved technologies and networks structures, and on the other hand the issues raised from applications to implications. We believe the link is a two-sided one. The goal is that it may contribute facilitating bridges between research areas.

Blockchain Scalability and its Foundations in Distributed Systems

This practical new book offers the distributed-computing fundamental knowledge for individuals to connect with one another in a more secure and efficient way than with traditional blockchains. These new forms of secure, scalable blockchains promise to replace centralized institutions to connect individuals without the risks of user manipulations or data extortions. The techniques taught herein consist of enhancing blockchain security and making blockchain scalable by relying on the observation that no blockchain can exist without solving the consensus problem. First, the state-of-the-art of consensus protocols are analyzed, hence motivating the need for a new family of consensus protocols of...

Distributed Computing and Networking

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking, ICDCN 2010, held in Kolkata, India, during January 3-6, 2010. There were 169 submissions, 96 to the networking track and 73 to the distributed computing track. After review the committee selected 23 papers for the networking and 21 for the distributed computing track. The topics addressed are network protocol and applications, fault-tolerance and security, sensor networks, distributed algorithms and optimization, peer-to-peer networks and network tracing, parallel and distributed systems, wireless networks, applications and distributed systems, optical, cellular and mobile ad hoc networks, and theory of distributed systems.
