Abstract: An example method of configuring a plurality of aspects of a system includes providing, by a computing system, a control smart contract and a plurality of subordinate smart contracts on a blockchain, wherein each subordinate smart contract receives a respective input regarding a respective one of the plurality of aspects and outputs a respective decision, and wherein the control smart contract controls a configuration process incorporating the subordinate contracts according to the decisions of the subordinate contracts. The method further includes conducting, by a computing system, the configuration process according to the control smart contract; and configuring the aspects of the system according to the decisions of the subordinate smart contracts.
