Simulation Method for Blockchain Systems with a Public Chain.

The potential security problems of blockchain technology are constantly restricting the development process of related industrial applications. The cost of deploying a blockchain system in a real environment to conduct research on security issues is relatively high, and the related security analysis and verification are also destructive and irreproducible. Therefore, based on the idea of layered design, this paper proposes a blockchain system simulation platform. The blockchain system is divided into four layers in the simulation platform: the consensus layer, network layer, contract layer, and storage layer. In the consensus layer, the problem of computing resource waste is solved. In the network layer, a peer-to-peer network topology simulation is implemented. In the storage layer, the problem of redundant storage is solved. In the contract layer, the contract replay speed is accelerated. Finally, a prototype of an efficient blockchain simulation system is implemented based on the above methods.
