报告一题目:Trustworthy Distributed Consensus and Verifiable Computation

报告时间:8月4日2:00 PM-2:50 PM

线下报告地点:理科大楼B211

主持人:邬海琴


报告摘要:

Consensus in distributed systems, agreeing on a global state under synchronous or asynchronous communication, is a challenging and costly problem. As assumed for blockchain or other distributed ledger technology, the problem increases under security assumptions, i.e., curious-but-honest participants or Byzantine-failure model. Here, the full replication of data leads to a significant resource burden. Sharding has been studied to reduce these costs, but it leads to security, liveness, and safety issues. The talk will present a line of work around liveness and safety properties for secure sharding algorithms and will touch upon privacy-preserving computation for verifiable decentralized programs.

报告摘要:

In recent years, with the rapid development of the big data era, there has been a continuous increase in the volume of data generated and collected in the digital world. This data encompasses various sources such as social media, e-commerce, and the Internet of Things. Big data has become integral to many industries, where companies and organizations leverage it to gain insights, improve operations, and make data-driven decisions. Data markets have emerged to facilitate data circulation and effectively harness the value hidden within data. This talk focuses on exploring the issues related to data collection and selling within the context of data markets while considering data privacy and security. It showcases several thoughtfully designed frameworks and systems, each tailored to achieve specific goals. The primary focus is to provide diverse solutions for overcoming the challenges related to data collection and selling in data markets, with a strong emphasis on safeguarding data privacy and security.
