Seminar description:
Leemon Baird, the creator of the hashgraph consensus algorithm, and a CMU graduate (1999), will talk about blockchains and hashgraph. He will discuss how blockchains and distributed ledger technologies (DLTs) are useful, but often have limited performance. To scale up a DLT, it is possible to take a core consensus algorithm as a building block, and construct bigger and more powerful systems. Approaches for scaling up include sharding, side ledgers, and consensus services. We will explore how these different approaches could be used with a ledger like Hedera Hashgraph, and their effects on performance, security, fairness, and privacy.
