Abstract

The lecture notes aims to acquaint students with the principles and protocols in a decentralized peer-to-peer (P2P) environments. While aspects of client-server communication are important, the less traditional but emerging P2P blockchain scheme and its integration into the Internet is an alternative that allows us to achieve unique features in terms of availability, transparency, and trust. This lecure notes mainly focus on the technical aspects of blockchain systems and their consensus protocols, while partially focusing on smart contracts and decentralized applications.
