Methods and systems are presented for providing a secured framework for facilitating electronic transactions using a multi-party computation approach. Under the multi-party computation approach, the task of authenticating a transaction conducted through a user account is distributed among multiple computer nodes. One or more secrets and shares of a secret are distributed among the multiple computer nodes. An authentication process is implemented such that at least a portion of the multiple computer nodes, including one or more required nodes, exceeding a predetermined number of nodes are needed to perform a set of computations using the corresponding secret(s) and/or shares of the secret in order to generate a digital signature for the user account. By verifying the digital signature using a public key of the user account, it can be determined that the participation requirement has been satisfied.

Threshold multi-party computation with must-have member

A wind turbine is provided. The wind turbine includes a plurality of control systems. The wind turbine further includes a reflective memory system. The plurality of control systems is coupled with the reflective memory system. Each of the plurality of control systems may include a respective memory of the reflective memory system. In response to data being written into one of the respective memories, the reflective memory system may automatically replicate the data to other respective memories.
