Abstract

This paper proposes a dynamic and scalable blockchain system framework for structuring a blockchain systems (BC). Traditionally a BC maintain multiple nodes with a smart-contract engine (SC) running on nodes, possibly with one or more Oracles Machines (OMs). However, many sophisticated applications require a much flexible yet still secure and scalable system architecture. The new framework LSO (Ledgers, Smart contracts, Oracles) with an inter-unit collaboration protocol that can be used for system registration, identification, communication, privacy protocols, and scalability management. The LSO framework is a dynamic and scalable framework because BCs, SCs, and OMs can be added without affecting the overall structure and without performance degradation. This framework support this by running a collection of cooperative Collaboration Layers (CLs) that acts like a DNS (Domain Name System) in Internet but this time to interconnect various BCs, SCs, and OMs. This LSO framework is a part of ChainNet initiative where BCs are used as building blocks in information and communication systems.
