Blockchain is a linearly linked, distributed, and very robust data structure. Originally proposed as part of the Bitcoin distributed stack, it can be applied in a number of fields, most notably in smart contracts, social media, secure IoT, and cryptocurrency mining. It ensures data integrity by distributing strongly encrypted data in widely redundant segments. Each new insertion requires verification and approval by the majority of the users of the blockchain. Both encryption and verification… 

Computing Long Sequences of Consecutive Fibonacci Integers with TensorFlow

This work presents two alternative parallel fibonacci generators implemented in TensorFlow, one based on the well-known recurrence equation generating the Fibonacci sequence and one expressed on inherent linear algebraic properties of Fibonaci numbers.

Tensor Clustering: A Review

This survey concisely presents the key tensor clustering techniques as well as their applications and deep learning frameworks which natively support tensors such as TensorFlow, Breeze, Spark MLlib, and Tensor Toolbox are presented.

Decentralizing Privacy: Using Blockchain to Protect Personal Data

A decentralized personal data management system that ensures users own and control their data is described, and a protocol that turns a block chain into an automated access-control manager that does not require trust in a third party is implemented.

Hawk: The Blockchain Model of Cryptography and Privacy-Preserving Smart Contracts

Hawk is a decentralized smart contract system that does not store financial transactions in the clear on the blockchain, thus retaining transactional privacy from the public's view, and is the first to formalize the blockchain model of cryptography.

Architecture of the Hyperledger Blockchain Fabric

A report of Swanson compares the two models of blockchains, where anyone can operate a node and participate through spending CPU cycles and demonstrating a “proof-of-work” in the “permissioned” model.

Blockchain: Blueprint for a New Economy

Mastering Bitcoin: Unlocking Digital Crypto-Currencies introduces Bitcoin and describes the technology behind Bitcoin and the blockchain, and Blockchain: Blueprint for a New Economy considers theoretical, philosophical, and societal impact of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies.

The Blockchain as a Decentralized Security Framework [Future Directions]

An overview of this technology for the realization of security across distributed parties in an impregnable and transparent way is presented.

The Blockchain as a Decentralized Security Framework

Analysis of the Blockchain Protocol in Asynchronous Networks

Nakamoto’s famous blockchain protocol enables achieving consensus in a so-called permissionless setting—anyone can join (or leave) the protocol execution, and the protocol instructions do not depend

Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System

This work proposes a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network, where the network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof- of-work.

Mastering Bitcoin: Unlocking Digital Crypto-Currencies

This book describes the technical foundations of bitcoin and other cryptographic currencies, from cryptography basics, such as keys and addresses, to the data structures, network protocols and the consensus mechanism ("mining") that underpin bitcoin.

Blockchain and the Internet of Things in the Industrial Sector

This article describes how these two technologies will improve efficiencies, provide new business opportunities, address regulatory requirements, and improve transparency and visibility.
