Distributed Systems News Today : Breaking News, Live Updates & Top Stories | Vimarsana

A fundamental issue in blockchain systems is their scalability in terms of data storage, computation, communication, and security. To resolve this issue, a promising research direction is coding theory, which is widely used for distributed storage, recovery from erasures or channel errors and/or to reduce communication cost. To this end, this article provides the first comprehensive survey of approaches that employ coding theory to scale blockchain systems. It shows how the use of coded symbols or shards allow participants to only store a fraction of the total blockchain, protect against malic...

Learn How to Better Understand Distributed System Design and Solve Common Problems Enterprises today rely on a range of distributed software handling data storage, messaging, system management, and compute capability. Distributed system designs need to be implemented in some programming language, and there are common problems that these implementations need to solve. These problems have common recurring solutions. A patterns approach is very suitable to describe these implementation aspects.
