商品描述

This book focuses on conducting a comprehensive analysis of blockchain scalability serving large-scale application scenarios, from the "what, why, how" three perspectives, layer by layer. Gathering the latest state-of-the-art research advances in the area of key issues and technologies for blockchain scalability, it also presents some special and exciting insights on the existing and future blockchain scalability.

Despite blockchain's merits of decentralization, immutability, non-repudiation, and traceability, the current blockchain has faced a serious scalability bottleneck. The scalability bottleneck problem is mainly manifested in two aspects: low-performance efficiency and difficulty in functional extension. First, the security and reliability of the blockchain system come from the fact that most nodes of the whole network participate in a distributed consensus to maintain the ledger. The high-cost consensus mechanism makes limited performance of blockchain, and there is a big gap between the actual large-scale application system. In addition, in order to ensure the security of a single blockchain system, data between different blockchain systems are relatively isolated, making it difficult for assets and data to interact.

This book explores the scalability of blockchain in depth, proposes meaningful approaches to the problems mentioned above, and builds an original theoretical system of blockchain scalability. It describes the root of blockchain scalability problems, mainstream blockchain performance, the classification of existing scalability problem solutions, and some exciting sharding-based approaches. It also includes open issues and future directions to scale blockchain for complex practical application scenarios. As such, this book will be a valuable resource for students, researchers, engineers, and policymakers working in various areas related to blockchain scalability, which is also of great significance for understanding and solving the bottleneck of blockchain scalability and realizing the practical large-scale commercial application of blockchain.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書專注於從「什麼、為什麼、如何」三個角度,逐層進行區塊鏈可擴展性的綜合分析,以服務於大規模應用場景。匯集了區塊鏈可擴展性關鍵問題和技術領域的最新前沿研究進展,並對現有和未來的區塊鏈可擴展性提供了一些特別且令人興奮的見解。

儘管區塊鏈具備去中心化、不可變更、不可否認和可追溯等優點,但當前的區塊鏈面臨著嚴重的可擴展性瓶頸。可擴展性瓶頸問題主要體現在兩個方面:低效能和功能擴展困難。首先,區塊鏈系統的安全性和可靠性來自於整個網絡的大多數節點參與分散式共識以維護帳本。高成本的共識機制使得區塊鏈的性能受到限制,與實際的大規模應用系統之間存在著巨大的差距。此外,為了確保單一區塊鏈系統的安全性,不同區塊鏈系統之間的數據相對隔離,這使得資產和數據之間的互動變得困難。

本書深入探討區塊鏈的可擴展性,提出針對上述問題的有意義的解決方案,並建立一個原創的區塊鏈可擴展性理論體系。它描述了區塊鏈可擴展性問題的根源、主流區塊鏈性能、現有可擴展性問題解決方案的分類,以及一些令人興奮的基於分片的解決方案。書中還包括開放性問題和未來在複雜實際應用場景中擴展區塊鏈的方向。因此,本書將成為學生、研究人員、工程師和政策制定者在區塊鏈可擴展性相關領域工作的寶貴資源,對於理解和解決區塊鏈可擴展性的瓶頸以及實現區塊鏈的實際大規模商業應用具有重要意義。
