Gathering the latest state-of-the-art research advances in the area of key issues and technologies for blockchain scalability, it also presents some special and exciting insights on the existing and future blockchain scalability. Despite blockchain?s merits of decentralization, immutability, non-repudiation, and traceability, the current blockchain has faced a serious scalability bottleneck. The scalability bottleneck problem is mainly manifested in two aspects: low-performance efficiency and difficulty in functional extension. First, the security and reliability of the blockchain system come from the fact that most nodes of the whole network participate in a distributed consensus to maintain the ledger. The high-cost consensus mechanism makes limited performance of blockchain, and there is a big gap between the actual large-scale application system. In addition, in order to ensure the security of a single blockchain system, data between different blockchain systems are relatively isolated, making it difficult for assets and data to interact. This book explores the scalability of blockchain in depth, proposes meaningful approaches to the problems mentioned above, and builds an original theoretical system of blockchain scalability. It describes the root of blockchain scalability problems, mainstream blockchain performance, the classification of existing scalability problem solutions, and some exciting sharding-based approaches. It also includes open issues and future directions to scale blockchain for complex practical application scenarios. As such, this book will be a valuable resource for students, researchers, engineers, and policymakers working in various areas related to blockchain scalability, which is also of great significance for understanding and solving the bottleneck of blockchain scalability and realizing the practical large-scale commercial application of blockchain. 606 $aBlockchains (Databases) 606 $aElectronic digital computers$xEvaluation 606 $aComputer security 606 $aComputer networks 606 $aBlockchain 606 $aSystem Performance and Evaluation 606 $aPrinciples and Models of Security 606 $aComputer Communication Networks 615 0$aBlockchains (Databases). 615 0$aElectronic digital computers$xEvaluation. 615 0$aComputer security. 615 0$aComputer networks. 615 14$aBlockchain. 615 24$aSystem Performance and Evaluation. 615 24$aPrinciples and Models of Security. 615 24$aComputer Communication Networks. 676 $a005.74 700 $aZheng$b Zibin$0849389 701 $aChen$b Wuhui$01373684 701 $aHuang$b Huawei$01373685 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910734875903321 996 $aBlockchain Scalability$93404754 997 $aUNINA
