Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If customized protocols are developed for each blockchain network to enable interoperability, then transaction capability across networks is improved, but development time and maintenance complexity increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal normalized protocol model that can function across multiple heterogeneous blockchain networks simultaneously. The system uses neuro-symbolic AI to create a single protocol framework that adapts to different network types (permissioned, permissionless, consortium) without requiring separate customized protocols for each network, thereby reducing development and maintenance complexity while maintaining interoperability capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a normalized protocol model as an intermediary layer between heterogeneous blockchain networks. This mediator translates and harmonizes interactions between different network protocols, allowing transactions to flow across networks without requiring direct customization between each pair of networks, thus reducing overall system complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If manual updates are performed by developers each time a blockchain network updates its protocol, then interoperability is maintained, but time consumption and operational overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a self-updating mechanism where the neuro-symbolic AI system automatically detects protocol changes in blockchain networks and adjusts the normalized protocol model accordingly. The system monitors network updates and performs autonomous reconfiguration without requiring manual developer intervention, thereby maintaining interoperability while eliminating time-consuming manual update processes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where the system continuously monitors blockchain network protocol updates and uses this information to automatically adjust the normalized protocol model. The neuro-symbolic AI analyzes incoming protocol changes and implements necessary adaptations, creating a closed-loop system that responds to network evolution without manual intervention.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple blockchain networks are integrated without a unified consent mechanism, then network diversity is preserved, but security risks and trust issues increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a normalized consent protocol as an intermediary mechanism that mediates interactions between diverse blockchain networks. This mediator establishes standardized consent rules and verification processes that maintain security and trust across networks without requiring uniformity in network structure or consensus mechanisms, thereby preserving network diversity while enhancing reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses parameter-based configuration to maintain security across diverse networks. The normalized protocol model adjusts security parameters dynamically based on the specific characteristics of each connected blockchain network, allowing the system to maintain appropriate security levels for each network type while preserving their unique properties and diversity.
4Adaptability or versatility
If heterogeneous blockchain networks operate independently with different protocols, then network autonomy is maintained, but user account management becomes difficult and confusing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal account management interface through the normalized protocol model that works across all connected blockchain networks. Users interact with a single standardized interface for managing accounts across multiple networks, while the underlying neuro-symbolic AI system handles the complexity of translating operations between different network protocols, thereby maintaining network autonomy while simplifying user operations.

AI summary
A system and method may generate a normalized protocol model that leverages heterogeneous distributed ledger technology and is interoperable across different blockchain networks that may initially use different network protocols. The model may be generated by leveraging neuro-symbolic artificial intelligence (AI). The model that is generated may be based on the different network protocols that are in use at the different blockchain networks. The model may be adopted by the blockchain networks upon the blockchain networks providing unified consent to its adoption. The model may be required to be implemented by each of the different blockchain networks. The consensus to adopt the model may be recorded in one or more smart contracts. Copies of the smart contracts may be stored at the blockchain networks. The normalized protocol model may allow electronic transaction, data exchanges, and communications to be performed across blockchain networks and recorded in a heterogeneous distributed ledger.
