区块链研究综述

A Literature Review of Block Chain

近年来,区块链受到了实业界、政府部门以及学术界的高度关注。作为信息技术体系的重要组成部分,区块链有望成为继蒸汽机、电力、信息、互联网科技后又一项改变人类社会和经济发展方式的技术。目前,区块链技术的研究和应用已经从数字货币领域逐渐进入金融、教育、医疗、公共服务等领域,正在国内外掀起一股探索研究的热潮。然而,现有研究大多集中在简单的概念性问题,对区块链还缺乏一个系统的认知框架。基于此,从区块链的概念、交易流程、基础架构、优势及问题、理论来源、技术支撑、发展及应用等多个角度对已有研究进行文献综述,对区块链进行全面阐述,希冀为相关研究提供有益的参考和借鉴。

In recent years, the block chain has received high attention from the industry, government, and academia. As an important part of the information technology system, the block chain is expected to become another technology that will change the way of human society and economic development, after the steam engine, electricity, information and internet technology. At present, the research and application of block chain technology has gradually entered into more fields from the initial digital currency to finance, education, medical care and public service. It is setting off an upsurge of exploration and research at both home and abroad. However, most of the existing studies focus on simple conceptual issues and lack a systematic cognitive research from the perspectives of advantages and disadvantages, framework. Hence, this arti block chain concepts, transacti theoretical basis, technical cle summarizes the existing on processes, infrastructure, support, development and applications. Through a holistic review, we hope to provide useful reference for research in the future.
