Abstract
A distributed ledger and transaction computing network fabric over which large numbers of transactions are processed concurrently in a scalable, reliable, secure and efficient manner. The computing network fabric or 'core' is configured to support a distributed blockchain network that organizes data in a manner that allows communication, processing and storage of blocks of the chain to be performed concurrently, with little synchronization, at very high performance and low latency, even when the transactions themselves originate from distant sources. This data organization relies on segmenting a transaction space within autonomous but cooperating computing nodes that are configured as a processing mesh. The nodes operate on blocks independently from one another while still maintaining a consistent and logically-complete view of the blockchain as a whole. Safe and performant transaction processing is provided using an optimistic concurrently control that includes a collision detection and undo mechanism.
