Label

Ethereum Blockchain

Description

An Ethereum blockchain is a distributed database that maintains a continuously-growing list of records called *blocks* secured from tampering and revision. Each block contains a timestamp and a link to a previous block in a Merkle tree structure.

Usage

Instances of :Blockchain can have the following properties:

PROPERTYTYPEDESCRIPTIONRANGE
From class :Blockchain
:startBlockNumber owl:DatatypeProperty The block number of the first block in a new blockchain after a hard fork. xsd:integer
:hasFork owl:ObjectProperty Relates a blockchain to a forked version of it. It is inverse functional because a forked blockchain can have only one blockchain it forked from. It is transitive because if a blockchain C that was forked from blockchain B that in turn was forked from blockchain A, blockchain C was also forked from blockchain A. It is asymetric because if blockchain A is forked from blockchain B, B cannot be also forked from A. It is irreflexive because a blockchain cannot be a fork of itself. :Blockchain
From class :EthOnConcept
:simpleDefinition owl:AnnotationProperty This property relates an EthOn concept to a definition in Simple English, intended especially for non-technical users. owl:Thing
:suggestedStringRepresentation owl:AnnotationProperty This property relates an EthOn concept with a suggested string representation. It can be used to give the term a name, e.g. in program code. owl:Thing
:conformsTo owl:ObjectProperty Relates an Ethereum concept to the Ethereum protocol variant it conforms to. owl:Thing
From class owl:Thing
:AccountObjectProperty owl:ObjectProperty Groups all EthOn account object properties owl:Thing
:BlockObjectProperty owl:ObjectProperty Groups all EthOn block object properties owl:Thing
:DASE_RULE owl:AnnotationProperty owl:Thing
:EthOnAnnotationProperty owl:AnnotationProperty Superclass of all EthOn specific annotation properties. owl:Thing
:EthOnDataProperty owl:DatatypeProperty Groups all data properties specific to EthOn. owl:Thing
:EthOnObjectProperty owl:ObjectProperty Groups all EthOn object properties owl:Thing
:MessageObjectProperty owl:ObjectProperty Groups all EthOn message object properties. owl:Thing
:NetworkDataProperty owl:DatatypeProperty Groups all EthOn network data properties. owl:Thing
:NetworkObjectProperty owl:ObjectProperty Groups all EthOn network object properties. owl:Thing
:StateObjectProperty owl:ObjectProperty Groups all EthOn state object properties. owl:Thing
:createsPostMsgState owl:FunctionalProperty Relates a message to the global state of the system after all the message has been executed. owl:Thing
:from owl:ObjectProperty Relates a message to the account it originates from. owl:Thing
:hasAccountStorage owl:FunctionalProperty Relates an account to the Merkle Patricia tree that encodes its storage contents at a certain account state. This property is Functional because an account state can have only one instance of account storage and inverse functional because an account storage can have only one associated account state. :AccountStorage
:hasReceiptsTrie owl:FunctionalProperty Relates a block to the trie that contains the block's receipt data. owl:Thing
:hasTransition owl:ObjectProperty Relates a state to a transition (i.e. a message) that creates a new state. owl:Thing
:knowsOfUncle owl:ObjectProperty Relates a block to a known uncle. owl:Thing
:partOf owl:ObjectProperty This is a general relation to express part of relationships. The classic study of parts and wholes, mereology, has three axioms: 1. the part-of relation is Transitive - "parts of parts are parts of the whole" - If A is part of B and B is part of C, then A is part of C Reflexive - "Everything is part of itself" - A is part of A Antisymmetric - "Nothing is a part of its parts" - if A is part of B and A != B then B is not part of A. owl:Thing
swrla:isRuleEnabled owl:AnnotationProperty owl:Thing
