The professional join
with private or public
service companies
and foundations, that
work in tourism
system both in
national or
international range

Know           Business

 Digital earth in a
Trasformed Society

Every innovative technology

Blockchain:       Presents itself as unique

Problems
Possible          Changes rules and limits of previous
solutions         technologies

Philosophy        It must produce consensus and be
Ethics            recognized as reliable and safe

The prices to
reach
Consensus

    Nowadays consensus passes through the recognition by the
    users at any level

    The recognition shall take place through the establishment of a
    function of status

    The status is what guarantees the transition from the Technological
    Authority (i.e. from proof of Authority to Reputation) to a social
    Authority

The new ethics of consensus:
From centralization to delocalization

  It is no longer governed by the top of the pyramid of a Brand Equity

  It is distributed on all authorized nodes of a blockchain network

  Delocalization creates reliability because consensus and authenticity
  are rights guaranteed thanks to (and from) the nodes of chain

  The consensus created by the Authority of a digital network guarantees the
  safeguard and the social and responsible value of the network itself

An example from the
past:
The Medieval
network of
monasteries

Well known nodes

PoA:           Role based node features
Hypothetical
Scenario       Mining by round-robin scheduler

               Low power consumption

PoA: Nodes

             Public address for connection permission

    P2P
             Challenge message sign using the Private Kay
             that corresponds to the address presented

Capabilities

Changes all permission for the users

Creates blocks and sign the metadata of transactions

Connects to other nodes and sees each blockchain’s contents

Send signed transaction

Receives signed transaction
                                               ..and so on…

Question

PoA:
Mining
         Assumption

         Assertion

Much simpler scheme for enforcing mining

PoA:       Little more than fomality
Cream of
the crop   More less power needs by checking each time which
           block a node mined among a window of blocks

           Simple hardware architecture and low
           power consumption
