Rep on the block: A next generation reputation system based on the blockchain
Richard Dennis,Gareth Owen +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents the first generalized reputation system that can be applied to multiple networks that is based on the blockchain, before using simulations and analyses to demonstrate methods of overcoming these limitations.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Temporal Blockchain: A Formal Analysis
TL;DR: A temporal rolling blockchain is proposed which solves the problem of its current exponential growth, instead replacing it with a constant fixed-size blockchain, comparing the results to a traditional blockchain model to demonstrate that the deletion of data from the blockchain does not impact on the security.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rep on the roll:a peer to peer reputation system based on a rolling blockchain
Richard Dennis,Gareth Owenson +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents the first generalized reputation system that can be applied to multiple networks that is based on the blockchain, and provides a possible solution to a fundamental issue in blockchain-based networks; scalability.
Book ChapterDOI
An Analysis into the Scalability of Bitcoin and Ethereum
Richard Dennis,Jules Pagna Disso +1 more
TL;DR: This paper conducts what is believed to be the first long-term assessment of the two largest blockchain-based networks; Bitcoin and Ethereum and proposes a model, a temporal blockchain, to reduce the network size and increase scalability.

Evaluation of AV systems against modern malware
TL;DR: In this article, the efficiency of AV products and their ability to detect malicious files commonly known as malware are evaluated. But, despite the apparent evolution of anti-virus (AV) systems, malicious authors have managed to create a sense of insecurity amongst computer users.
