DAG System and a method implementing a Directed Acyclic Graph DAG consensus algorithm via a gossip protocol

摘要

The present invention relates to a computer implemented method for exchanging information via a DAG/hash graph consensus algorithm via a gossip protocol, the method comprising: - causing a given first node (N ₁ ) to randomly select a given second node (N ₄ ) and transmit reference information (8); - determining which node event precedes another event on the basis of the reference information (8); - if the reference information (8) means that _{an event of a given first node (N 1} ) precedes an event of a given second node (N ₄ ), -- Then send the cancellation information 9 to the given first node (N ₁ ) and consequently prevent the given first node (N ₁ ) from sending the DAG-event information to the given second node (N _{4 )} to do; - if the reference information (8) means that the event of the given second node (N4) _{precedes the event of the given first node (N 1} ), -- then causing the given first node (N ₁ ) to transmit the DAG-event information 6 to the given second node (N ₄ ), which is then propagated through the network.
