The document discusses adding an event-based architecture to blockchains using augmented nodes. Each blockchain currently has its own API, and even programmable blockchains have different interfaces. A solution is to have a single interface for multiple blockchains through an augmented node. This node would add an event mechanism on top of the request-response architecture. Example use cases of an augmented node include processing payments and updating them in a unified blockchain query database when events, like a payment confirmation, occur across different blockchains.

2016 Blockchain Ecosystem Market Map
FirstPartner's 2016 Blockchain Ecosystem Market Map gives a clear visual overview of the emerging blockchain landscape, highlighting key companies, projects, technologies and trends.
The Map summarises three main areas of focus emerging around the core blockchain or distributed ledger protocols:
Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies: Providing an alternative to centrally managed "fiat" currencies, this sector includes Bitcoin exchanges, Bitcoin wallets, miners and cryptocurrency payment processors. The map illustrates how these companies interact and features some leading players including Coinbase, Circle, Kraken and 21 Inc.
The Financial Services Blockchain: This has been the main area of focus over the last 12 months as attention shifts from Bitcoin to Financial Services applications. An increasing number of players are focussing on commercialising blockchain technologies for banks, securities, derivatives and asset markets and institutional investors - and are attracting VC funding to do so. Ripple and Ethereum are leading candidate protocols for payment processing and smart contracts and players including Ripple, Chain and Digital Asset Holdings are gaining traction with Financial Institutions. The Map highlights leading technology companies and some of the banks, card schemes and processors who are investing in or evaluating distributed ledger technologies.
Other Use Cases: The distributed ledger concept and its ability to support transparent and tamperproof asset registration, proof of ownership and asset transfer transactions makes it potentially applicable to multiple non-financial use cases. The Map highlights a number of candidate use cases including publishing, legal, distributed data storage, document management and IoT. Some of the pioneering initiatives and companies exploring these applications are included.
Crucially the Map also provides a clear pictorial explanation and summary of the leading protocols at the heart of the ecosystem and concepts including coloured coins and smart contracts that supplement them to make a number of the proposed services possible.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

Augmented nodes
- 1. Augmented Nodes ADDING AN EVENT BASED ARCHITECTURE FACET TO BLOCKCHAINS Blockchain
- 2. Current situation Each blockchain has its own application Programming Interface (API)
- 3. Current situation Even within a programmable blockchain, the interface is also different to transfer a token from an account to another. Example: to transfer Ethers is different than transferring EIP20 tokens. Ethereum – Ether (ETH) Ethereum – EIP20* (EOS) * Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP20) officially institutes ERC20 token standard
- 4. A solution… A single Interface (API) Ethereum Litecoin Bitcoin Cash Bitcoin Bitcoin Gold Ethereum Classic Ethereum EIP 20
- 5. Current situation Current blockchains are based on a request-response architecture. Exception: programmable blockchains like Ethereum can fire events from within smart contracts.
- 6. Current situation Verifying payment confirmation is different for each blockchain. Supporting token transfer in multiple blockchains increases development time and costs. Example: payment confirmation within bitcoin is totally different than it is in Ethereum
- 7. A solution… Events Service Events Handlers Ethereum Litecoin Bitcoin Cash Bitcoin Bitcoin Gold Ethereum Classic Ethereum EIP 20
- 8. A solution: The Augmented Node Actual blockchain nodes: Their interface is based on a request-response architecture They all have their own idiosyncratic Application Programming Interface (API) Non programmable blockchains have a very different way to organize transactions and balances than programmable ones. Augmented blockchain nodes They present a single interface They add an event based mechanism to the actual request-response.
- 9. What can we do with a Blockchain Augmented Node?
- 10. Use Case: Payment Processing Events Service Payment Processing Receive an event when a payment is confirmed for a merchant payment processor Ethereum Litecoin Bitcoin Cash Bitcoin Bitcoin Gold Ethereum Classic Ethereum EIP 20
- 11. Use Case: Internet of things Events Service Internet of things When a payment is confirmed, send a code to a remote Wifi lock. Ethereum Litecoin Bitcoin Cash Bitcoin Bitcoin Gold Ethereum Classic Ethereum EIP 20
- 12. Use Case: Wallet feedback Events Service Wallet feedback Send operation feedback to wallets. An event is sent for each steps - Inclusion into MemPool - Miners transaction confirmation - Final confirmation based on a threshold.
