Abstract:
An example topology construction method for satisfying partition tolerance, comprising: combining the consortium blockchain consensus mechanism with the network topology structure to make the consortium blockchain consensus satisfy the partition tolerance in probability; abstracting the partition tolerance of a system into a class of convergent Markov process and computing a steady-state probability of the system; estimating the probability and the average minimum repair time of failing to meet consistency or availability in the event of a partition failure with a given number of failure channels, and a partition tolerance probability and an average minimum repair time of the system are obtained; and analyzing the resource overhead and the partition tolerance under different network topologies according to the obtained partition tolerance probability and the average minimum repair time, and constructing the network topology structure with suitable scale and high partition tolerance for the consortium blockchain consensus of different needs.

Claim (Index 5):
A topology construction system for satisfying the partition tolerance in the consortium blockchain consensus, wherein the topology construction system comprises:\n a combination module configured to combine the consortium blockchain consensus mechanism and the network topology structure to make the consortium blockchain consensus probabilistically satisfy partition tolerance; a convergence module configured to abstract the partition tolerance of the system into a class of convergent Markov process and to obtain a steady-state probability of the system, wherein the Markov process in the convergence module converges to a steady-state distribution independent of the initial distribution, and wherein in the single network topology, computing the steady-state probability of the system comprises:\n a loop multiplication unit configured to multiply a state transition matrix P iteratively by itself; and \n a determining unit configured to determine whether a 2-norm of the difference between two consecutive products is smaller than a set convergence precision; wherein if it is less than, the power value of P at this time is determined to be a steady-state probability matrix P\u25a1, and if it is not less than, returning to the loop multiplication unit; \n a sampling estimation module configured to estimate a probability and a minimum repair time of failing to meet consistency or availability in the event of a partition failure with a given number of failure channels, and to obtain a partition tolerance probability and an average minimum repair time of the system; and a network construction module configured to analyze a resource overhead and the partition tolerance under different network topologies according to the obtained partition tolerance probability and the average minimum repair time and to construct the network topology with suitable size and higher partition tolerance for the consortium blockchain consensus of different needs.
