  • Publication number: 20240160463
    Abstract: A secure computer drive system includes an application programming interface, a graphical user, and a distributed computer system. The application programming interface provides a plurality of functions associated with a computer interface that are accessible to a computer application. The graphical user interface is coupled to the application programming interface, drives a computer display to display contents of the secure computer drive system, and receives user inputs for changing the contents using an operating system file explorer. The distributed computer system is implemented using an event actor architecture that maintains a chain-of-events consensus algorithm.

  • Patent number: 11924326
    Abstract: The present invention describes an architecture for increasing the performance of blockchain using a virtual actor model to provide stateful services that are highly scalable and responsive to events as they support publishing and/or subscribing to streaming messages and/or events. The architecture as described leverages established distributed design practices to achieve what would otherwise require costly resource intensive hardware.

  • Publication number: 20230008302
    Abstract: A method for processing transactions for a decentralized application of a computing system includes receiving a transaction having associated data by the computing system. The transaction is processed using an event actor architecture. A first block related to said transaction is received, wherein the first block includes a cryptographic signature. The transaction is cryptographically processed using a chain-of-events blockchain, wherein the chain-of-events blockchain includes a ledger of blocks cryptographically linked by events. The transaction is rejected if the transaction accesses a second block not linked to the first block in a correct chain-of-events.
