An uncle is the direct child of the k'th generation ancestor of a block B, where 2<=k<=7 but not a direct ancestor of B. Uncles are blockchain blocks found by a miner, when a different miner has already found another block for the corresponding place in the blockchain. They are also known as “stale blocks”. The parent of an uncle is an ancestor of the inserting block, located at the tip of the blockchain.
Instances of :Uncle can have the following properties:
| PROPERTY | TYPE | DESCRIPTION | RANGE |
|---|---|---|---|
| From class :Uncle | |||
| :uncleBeneficiaryReward | owl:DatatypeProperty | The reward the beneficiary of an uncle receives if a block includes it. The reward amount depends how far up the Uncle is in the blockchain (the number of the block in which it is included minus the uncle's number). An uncle reward is only paid if the distance is smaller than 8. For a distance of 1 the reward is 7/8 of the block reward, for a distance of 7 the reward is 1/8 of the block reward. | xsd:integer |
| From class :BlockConcept | |||
| :BlockDataProperty | owl:DatatypeProperty | Groups all data properties that are specific to a block. These properties are usually functional because a block can only be associated with a single instance of them. | owl:Thing |
| 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 | |
