平行区块链:概念、方法与内涵解析

Parallel Blockchain: Concept, Methods and Issues

本文提出了平行区块链的概念框架、基础理论和研究方法体系,并探讨了平行区块链的内涵.平行区块链技术是平行智能理论方法与区块链技术的有机结合,致力于通过实际区块链系统与人工区块链系统的平行互动与协同演化,为目前的区块链技术增加计算实验与平行决策功能,实现描述、预测、引导相结合的区块链系统管理与决策.平行区块链这一新型研究范式可望为下一步区块链研究和未来产业应用提供有益的启发与借鉴.

In this paper, we propose the conceptual framework, fundamental theory, research methodology and issues of parallel blockchains. As an organic combination of both parallel intelligence theory and blockchain technology, parallel blockchain is aimed to offer the key capabilities including computational experiments and parallel decision-making to blockchains via parallel interactions and co-evolution between real and artificial blockchain systems, thus realizing the effective blockchain management and decision-making with descriptive intelligence, predictive intelligence and prescriptive intelligence. Parallel blockchain can be considered as a novel research paradigm for blockchain, and is expected to offer helpful guidance and reference for future research efforts and industrial applications.
