Title: Block Chain: The Revolutionary Trust Protocol

ABSTRACT

Block chain is a new disruptive technology and is expected to transform the way we do banking, contracts, manufacturing, and others. It is a new trust protocol. Just as the open communications protocol created profitable business services by catapulting innovation, the Block-chain protocol offers a similar foundation on which businesses can create value-added chains. Using the integrity lattice of the transactions, a whole suite of value trading innovations will enter the market.

We will discuss what it is and how it opens new opportunities for entrepreneurs and researchers in networking, security, and computing.
