Part 2 of Blockchain Technology. A mini series done in collaboration between SWFL Tech and SWFL Coders.
By now, we have all heard about Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, Bitcoin and all the buzz around it. But what is the blockchain really? Many of you have asked for a tech meetup on that very topic, and we delivered. We explored the technology behind blockchain, distributed ledgers, and the associated applications such as crypto currencies like bitcoin and others.
Put simply, a blockchain is a ledger of records organized in 'blocks' that are linked together by cryptographic validation. It is a digital storage of consensus truth. Open-source software that leverage the blockchain technology are called Dapps (Or Distributed Apps). This talk mini series was structured in 2 main topics.
The goal of this first talk gave insight into the technology behind the buzzword. The talk provided the audience with a high-level, non-technical understanding of blockchain by going through a real-world use case. Lu Doan presented an overview of his decentralized application (dAPP) project built on the Ethereum blockchain. Lu provided insights into the project along with reasons why blockchain and Ethereum were selected for these projects.
In this second talk we explore something called smart contracts and D-Apps. A D-App is an open-source software platform implemented on decentralized blockchains and fueled using tokens which are generated using a protocol/algorithm. I was honored to be a speaker at this event.

A human-machine interface (HMI) application uses parallel processing. The HMI engineering system allows explicit specification of different cores of a multi-core processor for different elements and/or actions.
I was invited to speak at the University of Hiroshima at the International Workshop on Human Modeling.
