Consensus architecture

Distributed Ledger

Decentralized systems where trust is computed, not assumed. Examining consensus mechanisms, Merkle trees, and the cryptographic primitives that secure distributed state. Each block is cryptographically linked to its predecessor, forming an immutable chain. The Merkle root ensures data integrity across all transactions within a single block.

Compiler Design

The art of translating human intent into machine execution. Lexical analysis, parsing, AST transformation, and code generation form the pipeline that bridges abstraction and silicon.

Interface layers

Hardware Abstraction

The invisible translators between software intent and hardware capability. HALs, device drivers, and firmware form the contract that makes portable computing possible.

APPLICATION

User-facing software, APIs, and runtime environments. The visible surface of the computing stack.

HTTP servers, CLI tools, GUI apps, WASM modules

OS / RUNTIME

Operating system services, syscalls, and language runtimes managing execution flow.

Process scheduling, memory management, file systems

HAL INTERFACE

The contract layer translating software intentions into hardware-specific commands.

MMIO registers, DMA controllers, interrupt handlers

DRIVERS

Device-specific modules communicating directly with individual hardware peripherals.

GPU drivers, NIC firmware, storage controllers

SILICON

Raw transistors, logic gates, and physical circuits. Where computation meets physics.

FinFET transistors, copper interconnects, photolithography
