Abstract

Publicly verifiable random number seeds are widely used in distributed systems and applications, especially in consensus algorithms. The purpose was to distribute the tasks and benefits among the participants fairly. A secure and efficient consensus algorithm is the foundation and guarantee of blockchain. We have been working on more concise, fair, and secure blockchain consensus algorithms. In this paper, we propose a new, more concise, efficient, and publicly verifiable random number seed generation scheme based on the existing secret sharing scheme and one-way function. We combined it with two blockchain consensus algorithms to improve the security and efficiency of the original scheme.

基于抗串通、可公开验证的随机数种子的共识算法

可公开验证的随机数种子广泛应用于分布式系统和应用中，特别是共识算法中。其目的是在参与者之间公平分配任务和利益。安全高效的共识算法是区块链的基础和保障。我们一直致力于研究更简洁、公平、安全的区块链共识算法。在本文中，我们基于现有的秘密共享方案和单向函数，提出了一种新的、更简洁、高效、可公开验证的随机数种子生成方案。我们将其与两种区块链共识算法相结合，提高了原方案的安全性和效率。

期刊介绍： The quality of software, well-defined interfaces (hardware and software), the process of digitalisation, and accepted standards in these fields are essential for building and exploiting complex computing, communication, multimedia and measuring systems. Standards can simplify the design and construction of individual hardware and software components and help to ensure satisfactory interworking. Computer Standards & Interfaces is an international journal dealing specifically with these topics. The journal • Provides information about activities and progress on the definition of computer standards, software quality, interfaces and methods, at national, European and international levels • Publishes critical comments on standards and standards activities • Disseminates user''s experiences and case studies in the application and exploitation of established or emerging standards, interfaces and methods • Offers a forum for discussion on actual projects, standards, interfaces and methods by recognised experts • Stimulates relevant research by providing a specialised refereed medium.
