Advanced error control coding techniques for scalable blockchains

该项目旨在研究差错控制编码理论在区块链中的应用，重点是减少区块链网络的存储、计算和通信开销，以及提高区块链网络的吞吐量。他们的目标是在一个全新的领域发展编码理论：分散的、不可信的和对等网络。预期的结果是极大地扩展差错控制码理论的当前技术水平，以前仅在集中式体系结构的背景下研究，其中服务器协调每项任务。实际上，该项目应该在区块链的成本效益、处理速度的提高和安全性增强方面提供显著的好处。

The project aims to investigate the application of error-control coding theory in blockchains, focusing on reducing the storage, computation, and communication overheads, as well as increasing the throughput of blockchain networks. The ambition is to develop coding theory in a completely new territory: decentralised, untrusted, and peer-to-peer networks. The intended outcome is to greatly extend the current state of the art of the theory of error-control codes, previously investigated only in the context of centralised architectures, where a server coordinates every task. Practically, the project should provide significant benefits in terms of cost-effectiveness of blockchains, increase in their processing speed, and security enhancement.
