Technology and Application of Blockchain

Southwest Jiaotong University via XuetangX

Overview

General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized during the 18th collective study of the Politburo: "Take blockchain as an important breakthrough in independent innovation of core technology, accelerate the development of blockchain technology and industrial innovation, and actively promote the integration of blockchain and economic and social development."

As the second-generation Internet technology architecture, it differs from the first-generation Internet technology architecture in that the transmission of "information" is the core, and the blockchain is based on the transmission of "value" and "trust". The emergence of blockchain not only brings a brand-new technology integration, development and operation architecture, but also a comprehensive innovation of thinking mode and application mode. It is the basic technology in the era of intelligent interconnection.

This course aims to introduce the blockchain in a holistic and systematic way, so that learners can avoid the fragmented learning and understanding of the blockchain on the Internet. It involves the concept, knowledge system, application scenarios and typical blocks of the blockchain Chain technology architecture. Through the study of this course, it helps learners to establish a comprehensive and systematic understanding of blockchain.

The summary of many viewpoints, knowledge systems and application scenarios of this course comes from our own understanding in information technology research, teaching and engineering practice, combined with the in-depth thinking of blockchain, which is original.
