Blockchain Application Design and Development, and the Case of Programmable M...Ingo Weber
Slides from my CLOSER 2021 keynote ( https://www.insticc.org/node/TechnicalProgram/closer/2021/presentationDetails/1390 )
Blockchain has emerged as a decentralized platform for managing digital assets and executing 'smart contracts', i.e., user-defined code. While blockchain's suitability for a given use case should always be scrutinized, it does have the potential to disrupt many of the connection points between individuals, companies, and government entities. In this keynote talk, I will provide an overview of what architects and developers need to know in order to build blockchain-based applications, and how it relates to the cloud and software services. Among others, I will cover blockchain-as-a-service concepts, as well as architectural concerns and model-driven engineering for blockchain applications, the latter also in relation to collaborative business processes. To highlight some of the challenges, I will discuss insights from a project on "programmable money", i.e., blockchain-based money for conditional payments where the money itself checks whether it can be spent in a certain way at the point of payment. Finally, I will touch on insights into current adoption of blockchain.
What is Blockchain? Is it ‘just another’ buzzword or is it ‘the next big thing?’ In this session the presenter will discuss the world of Blockchain. What is it exactly, and how shall it change the world and what are the practical usages? During this presentation we discuss how an enterprise Blockchain can be used in combination with the Oracle Container Cloud and how it replaces commonly known B2B patterns. The audience will get a general picture of Blockchain, why and how to use it, and a small introduction to start building their own.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

• Do not trust others’ records
• Independent validation of proposed blocks (order of transactions)
• Independent execution of transactions
• Consensus
• All copies of the ledger are guaranteed to be identical (fraudulent records are easy to
discover and dispute)
13. Privacy is inherently challenging in blockchain
• The most valuable property of blockchain is data immutability
• Which is achieved by having multiple parties maintain a shared ledger
• Transactions are independently executed by nodes while validating
blocks
• As a result, both transaction input and state are globally shared
throughout the network participants
• How can privacy be achieved in such an architectural context?
14. Technique #1: Data Isolation
• Only a subset of the network participants get the transaction input,
others do not know such transactions have happened
• States are inherently partitioned: there are many separate state trees
corresponding to private transactions
• It’s also important to have a reference of commitment in the global
shared ledger to ensure security of the private transactions (eg. For
dispute resolution when private parties do not agree with private
states)
• Examples: EEA Private Transactions (Quorum, Hyperledger Besu),
Hyperledger Fabric private data collections
15. Technique #2: Separate Blockchains
• Most enterprise use cases dictate permissioned blockchains, such
that data is not accessible to external parties
• Setting up different instances of permissioned blockchains, among
different groups of private transactions, to keep transactions private
• Overhead can be high, although with Hyperledger Fabric’s channel
design, single node can participate in multiple networks
• Can still be a costly pattern given the number of permutations
required to satisfy privacy among a large number of participants
16. Technique #3: Address Generation
• Only addresses anonymity
• Use a new address for every transaction, making it impossible to link
signing keys to real world identity
• Hides trading patterns
• Typically using key derivation from a master seed to avoid tracking a
large number of signing keys
• e.g BIP32 compliant Hierarchical Deterministic wallets
17. Technique #3: Trusted Compute
• The idea is that:
• Transaction inputs are hidden,
• but the processing logic is public,
• such that the computations involved in the state transfer can be performed
only by the transaction participants
• but others can be convinced that the computations are done
correctly/honestly
• “I may not know what you did, but I know you did it
honestly/correctly”
18. Different types of Trusted Compute
• Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP)
• Using advanced cryptography, present a proof that only the transaction
submitter can generate, and ask all participants to verify for correctness
• Trusted Execution Environment (TEE)
• Execute the transaction on a special hardware based environment, and be
assured the code involved match expected processing logic
19. Zero Knowledge Proof
• A cryptographic protocol
• Actors: prover, verifier
• Goal: prover to convince the verifier of the possession of knowledge
X, without disclosing what X is
20. ZKP – An illustrative explanation
• Alice to Prove: Knowledge of a Sudoku puzzle solution

21. ZKP – An illustrative explanation
• Step 1: Alice to permute the solution by using different numbers, 1-
>5, 2-> 7, 3->2, etc.

22. ZKP – An illustrative explanation
• Step 1: mask the solution, called a “commitment”

24. ZKP – An illustrative explanation
• Step 3: Bob randomly picks a unit (row, column or 3x3 square) and asks
Alice to reveal the (permuted) solution; Bob verifies for correctness
Prover Verifier
25. ZKP – An illustrative explanation
• Step 4: Alice permutes the solution again to get a different set of
numbers (still mapped from the original solution)
Prover Verifier
26. ZKP – An illustrative explanation
• Step 5: Bob randomly picks another unit and asks Alice to reveal the
(permuted) solution again
Prover Verifier
27. ZKP – An illustrative explanation
• After enough rounds, Bob is convinced that Alice must know the
correct answer to be able to nail each requested unit, randomly
decided by the verifier
• Zero Knowledge Proof is a probabilistic proof
Prover Verifier
28. ZKP – cryptographic components*
• Secure hashing (to produce commitments)
• Homomorphic encryption (to hide verifier’s challenge)
• Cryptographic pairing (to make the protocol non-interactive and
operate on encrypted public parameters from trusted setup)
* Based on zkSNARKs protocol

30. Trusted Execution Environment
• Hardware based secure enclave where code and data are protected
against malicious access, even if attacker gained admin privilege
• Both confidentiality (can not steal what’s inside the enclave) and
integrity (can be ensured the right code is executed) are protected
• Provides remote attestation on the code and data inside the enclave
• Examples:
• Intel SGX (Software Guard Extension)
• IBM SSC (Secure Service Container)
• ARM TrustZone
31. TEE - How It Works and Why It Matters
• “Enclaves” are special regions of memory that is only accessible to
CPUs, not even system administrator can see what’s inside
• “Attestation” is equivalent to a proof in ZKP, that can convince a
verifier of correct computation
• Therefore, using TEE to process transactions and sending either the
encrypted result or hash to the blockchain, guarantees confidentiality

36. Decentralization in Enterprise Blockchains
• Unlike public blockchains, enterprise blockchains are almost always
built with permissioned networks, where all identities are known to
be linked to real world entities
• This gives consortiums legal tools that are not available to public
blockchains
• As such, decentralization in enterprise blockchains are not achieved
with massive number of nodes, but with competing real world
interests (thus making collusions costly)
37. Achieving Scalability
• Increased block size
• More efficient consensus algorithms, instead of PoW, use:
• Crash fault tolerance – Raft, Kafka (zookeeper)
• Byzantine fault tolerance – IBFT, Tendermint
• Off-chain (“layer-2”) transactions
• state channels
• Trusted Execution Environment
• Sharding
• Split smart contracts and accounts among instances of blockchains, and have
a single coordinating chain to ensure security (consensus)
• Eth2.0
