Towards a Design Philosophy for Interoperable Blockchain Systems
Thomas Hardjono, Alexander Lipton, Alex Pentland · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2018
In this paper we discuss a design philosophy for interoperable blockchain systems, using the design philosophy of the Internet architecture as the basis to identify key design principles. Several interoperability challenges are discussed in the context of cross-domain transactions. We illustrate how these principles are informing the interoperability architecture of the MIT Tradecoin system.
