Blockchain is a distributed ledger of records called blocks that are linked using cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. Blockchain provides an open, decentralized database for transferring assets like money without a central authority. Transactions are verified through consensus mechanisms and validated before being added to the permanent blockchain in a process called mining. This makes the data auditable and resistant to modification, providing transparency and security.

MultiChain is an open source platform for private blockchain applications that provides highly configurable permissioned blockchains, fast transaction processing speeds, and decentralized data storage through customizable assets and streams. It offers a flexible way to deploy private blockchains across operating systems and clouds. MultiChain has been used for various use cases including identity management, insurance administration, and enabling liquidity in crowdfunding.
MultiChain technology allows organizations to establish private blockchains using a simple API and command line interface. It ensures transactions only occur between validated participants of the chain to maintain stability and control. The mining process is made safer through proof of work and costs. Handshaking occurs when nodes connect and exchange permission lists, aborting if results are unsatisfactory. Mining diversity establishes a rotation schedule for accurate block generation across permitted miners. Transaction fees and block incentives can be configured in the params.dat file along with other chain settings.

Bitcoin - Introduction, Technical Aspects and Ongoing DevelopmentsBernhard Haslhofer
Ā
This document provides an introduction to Bitcoin, covering its technical aspects and ongoing developments. It begins with introductions from two presenters, Bernhard Haslhofer and Aljosha Judmayer. The agenda then outlines an overview of Bitcoin, including its introduction, technical aspects such as how the blockchain works, and ongoing developments like alternative applications and recent initiatives from MIT. It also briefly discusses Bitcoin's history with crime and potential applications beyond digital currency.
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that was created in 2009. It functions without a central bank or single administrator through a peer-to-peer network and blockchain technology. Bitcoin is mined through the use of computer processing power to verify transactions and add them to the blockchain. Miners are rewarded with newly minted bitcoins and transaction fees for their work maintaining the integrity of the blockchain. There will only ever be 21 million bitcoins created as the block reward gets cut in half approximately every four years.
Blockchain technology promises major changes for the banking and financial sectors similar to how the internet changed things in the 1990s. Blockchain uses distributed ledger technology to record transactions in digital blocks that are linked together, growing over time into a permanent chain. This allows transactions to be validated and settled across a distributed network without a central authority. While Bitcoin was an early use of blockchain, the technology has potential applications beyond cryptocurrencies if other ways can be found to incentivize network participants and reach consensus without native digital assets.
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that allows for instant payments anywhere in the world without a central authority. It uses peer-to-peer technology and blockchain to manage transactions and regulate the monetary supply. Key aspects include how bitcoins are created through mining, stored in digital wallets using public/private key cryptography, and spent by digitally signing transactions that are recorded on the distributed blockchain ledger to prevent double spending.
Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer electronic cash system and the first truly decentralized network for sending and receiving value over the Internet. This presentation gets into the details of the technology and answers common questions related to the bitcoin, how it works.

Blockchain, working [blockchain vs bitcoin] pros and consJerin Sebastian
Ā
This document provides an overview of blockchain technology. It describes how a blockchain is a growing list of records or blocks secured using cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, timestamp, and transaction data linking it to the previous block. Blockchains use a peer-to-peer network to validate new blocks and maintain a distributed ledger without a central authority. The first conceptualization of blockchain was for bitcoin, which uses the technology to power a cryptocurrency with a finite and decentralized currency.
Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that was created in 2009 as a decentralized digital currency not controlled by any central authority like a bank. It uses cryptography to secure transactions and generate new units of currency. Transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain. New bitcoins are "mined" by solving complex math problems, and the total number that can ever be created is limited to 21 million. While bitcoin offers advantages like instant transactions and anonymity, it also has risks like high volatility and the inability to recover funds if private keys are lost.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
Ā
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Ā
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

This document serves as a comprehensive step-by-step guide on how to effectively use PyCharm for remote debugging of the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) on a local Windows machine. It meticulously outlines several critical steps in the process, starting with the crucial task of enabling permissions, followed by the installation and configuration of WSL.
The guide then proceeds to explain how to set up the SSH service within the WSL environment, an integral part of the process. Alongside this, it also provides detailed instructions on how to modify the inbound rules of the Windows firewall to facilitate the process, ensuring that there are no connectivity issues that could potentially hinder the debugging process.
The document further emphasizes on the importance of checking the connection between the Windows and WSL environments, providing instructions on how to ensure that the connection is optimal and ready for remote debugging.
It also offers an in-depth guide on how to configure the WSL interpreter and files within the PyCharm environment. This is essential for ensuring that the debugging process is set up correctly and that the program can be run effectively within the WSL terminal.
Additionally, the document provides guidance on how to set up breakpoints for debugging, a fundamental aspect of the debugging process which allows the developer to stop the execution of their code at certain points and inspect their program at those stages.
Finally, the document concludes by providing a link to a reference blog. This blog offers additional information and guidance on configuring the remote Python interpreter in PyCharm, providing the reader with a well-rounded understanding of the process.
Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
Ā
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.
4. BITCOIN
ā¢ Bitcoin a cryptocurrency and digital payment system called
the first decentralized digital currency.
ā¢ Satoshi Nakamoto---2009 (as open source software)
ā¢ It is peer to peer.
ā¢ Transactions are verified by a system called BLOCKCHAIN.
5. BLOCK CHAIN
ā¢ It is a continuously growing list of records called blocks
(public ledger).
ā¢ Make secure using Cryptography
ā¢ Linked Together
ā¢ Hash Pointer (SHA-256)-previous block
ā¢ Developed by SATOSHI.
6. CREATION OF BITCOIN
ā¢ Mining
ā¢ Mining is the process of adding transaction records to
Bitcoin's public ledger of past transactions
ā¢ Supply----
ā¢ as a reward 12.5BTC (coinbase)
after 21M BTC no reward
4 years value of reward halved.
7. TRANSACTION
ā¢ Process of transferring money from one person to
another.
ā¢ Public key(for transfer)
ā¢ Private key
ā¢ Transaction fees is optional
8. ADVANTAGE
ā¢ Free from bank defaults
ā¢ Control and Security
ā¢ Programable
ā¢ Fewer Risk
ā¢ Transparent Info.(public ledger/not identity)
ā¢ Freedom in payment (at any time /holiday/bank free)
9. DISADVANTAGE
ā¢ Private key is very important
ā¢ Govt. Rules
ā¢ Wallet file corrupt
ā¢ Lack of awareness
ā¢ Still developing
10. CONCLUSION
ā¢ It is not perfect. It does have many advantages that physical
currencies do not provide its users.
ā¢ It also has its disadvantages. This is mostly due to the fact
that Bitcoin is still a relatively young and new currency.
ā¢ People are just beginning to become more aware of it. In
order for Bitcoin to succeed, more people need to understand
what it is and not let their preconceived notions distort the
concept of digital currencies.
