Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing smart contract deployment methods on blockchain networks face limitations in applicability and efficiency due to block size constraints and manual installation errors.
Innovation Solution
Implement sharding processing on intermediate smart contract code to generate multiple byte arrays, which are transmitted as program shards to blockchain nodes for assembly into a complete code, allowing decentralized deployment without manual installation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If the block size is limited to ensure security and reach consensus quickly, then the consensus speed and security are improved, but the smart contract deployment applicability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the smart contract code into multiple bytecode arrays (shards) that can be independently packaged and transmitted. Each shard is a segment of the overall contract, allowing the contract to be deployed in parts rather than as a single large unit, thus overcoming the block size limitation while maintaining security and consensus speed
2Manufacturing precision
If manual verification of program packages is performed, then the installation accuracy is improved, but the installation efficiency and reliability deteriorate due to manual errors
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements automatic verification where the blockchain node automatically verifies the validity of the program package without manual intervention. The system uses cryptographic signatures and predefined verification mechanisms to automatically confirm the authenticity and correctness of the smart contract code, eliminating manual errors while maintaining high accuracy and improving efficiency
