- Observation: DG is at the one-month mark
- Can we add something like a "technology SWOT analysis" to Alice participates in Bob's Research Study as a criterion for approving it as complete?
- Plotting and analyzing aspects of blockchain overall, smart contracts, CmA, other related tech – see the report outline
- Do we want to categorize use cases/organize them into a taxonomy? Is this helpful for our report purposes?
- What use cases do we want to take up next week? (Scott as chair pro tem on Tuesday)
Attending: Thomas, Jim, Mattise, Scott, Kathleen, Domenico, John W., Marc, Anne Vroom, Luk,
Would SWOT analysis help us closeup use-cases. Can we flip the question: does my use case require a blockchain (with its features, such as consensus algorithm)?
Anne V. asks a definition of blockchains as we understand, and then see if it fits the use-case. Marc states if smart-contracts could be used to improve efficiency/automation while leaving out use-cases that don't benefit from it. Kathleen: rule engine running & coming up decisions.
John W: at IIW one working defintion of block chain is a system with distributed ledger and a leader selection process.
