Transactional memory for smart contracts

Research Topic
Abstract
The goal of the project is to develop a system for concurrent execution of smart contracts in blockchain systems. There is a well known concept of transactional memory, with a number of concurrent algorithms developed. In the project the student has to design and implement a TM algorithm, integrate it with a smart contracts platform, and run benchmarks to measure system performance.
