Hello:
everyone,
it's
Liz,
Bancroft
turn
here
from
IOH
kay
I'm
here
today,
to
give
you
September's
update
for
project
Shelly.
So
in
today's
agenda,
we'll
give
you
a
recap
of
why
we're
doing
this
project
for
those
that
aren't
familiar
with
Shelly
I'll
also
provide
an
update
of
the
work
we've
done
last
month
and
I
would
like
to
spend
some
time
talking
to
the
test
equality
plan
that
we've
started
working
on
too.
So
as
a
reminder
for
those
of
you
not
familiar
with
Shelly,
the
goal
of
Shelly
project
is
to
become
fully
decentralized
and
autonomous.
A
There
are
three
main
work
streams
that
will
help
us
deliver
decentralization.
They
are
incentives,
delegation
and
networking
so
for
incentives.
This
is
about
encouraging
stakeholders
to
follow
the
protocol
and
assure
that
the
system
runs
smoothly
for
delegation.
This
is
about
allowing
users
to
hand
over
their
right
to
sign
blocks
to
a
third
party
and
for
networking
it's
about
enabling
the
infrastructure
to
support
decentralization.
A
A
So
what
I've
done
in
this
month
update,
has
changed
the
color
of
the
deliverables
to
distinguish
between
what
deliverables
are
complete
and
which
ones
are
still
work-in-progress,
so
the
creat
is
green
and
work
in
progress
is
orange,
so
the
research
phases
is
complete.
Now
we've
submitted
two
papers,
they
are
incentives
and
delegation
and
they
can
be
found
on
our
IR
HK
website.
Last
month
we
were
waiting
for
the
delegation
eprint
to
come
out
or
the
good
news
is
it's
out
now.
So
if
those
that
want
to
read
it,
they
can.
A
We
are
currently
in
the
design
phase,
where
we're
still
progressing
with
a
number
of
Global's
here,
we're
still
tracking
green
overall
we're
making
further
progress
on
the
design
specification.
We've
started
translating
the
text
document
into
mathematical,
notation,
which
is
which
is
less
ambiguous
and
more
expressive,
so
that
can
be
sure
that
everything
is
consistent
and
we
haven't
forgotten
anything.
Also.
The
other
team
members
have
read
it.
They've
asked
their
questions
and
feeding
the
answers
back
into
the
documents
that
it's
more
comprehend
Zev.
So
we've
also
been
working
on
the
detailed
technical
implementation
plan.
A
We've
been
documenting
the
work
breakdown
packages.
This
requires
thought
as
to
you
know
what
the
dependencies
are.
What
can
be
worked
on
in
parallel?
What
is
sequential,
how
long
does
it
take
to
implement
and
what
skills
that
is
required
to
implement?
On
the
networking
side,
we've
made
good
progress
here
on
the
comms
protocol
design.
We
have
an
initial
design
of
the
protocol,
it's
requirements
and
operational
semantics.
This
is
how
it
runs.
We
have
initial
specifications,
including
property-based
test
for
blockchain
that
the
protocol
needs
to
operate
on.
A
We
have
two
experimental
descriptions
of
the
protocol
which
we
are
going
to
use
to
test
against
each
other.
We
have
a
pure
model
for
running
asynchronous
protocols
on
top
of
it,
which
includes
a
pure
model
of
software
transaction
memory
and
we're
making
progress
in
a
pure
model
of
the
protocol,
which
can
be
then
also
used
in
a
real
setup.
So
we
are
very
much
prototyping
and
implementing
the
comms
protocol
both
know
to
know
supporting
the
Ouroboros
chain
broadcast
with
chain
selection
and
also
know
to
consumer
for
services
that
need
to
consume
blockchain.
A
The
testing
procedures
that
will
be
followed
reveal
the
scope
of
the
testing
revealed
procedures
associated
with
testing
he'll
highlight
tools,
requirements,
risks,
issues
and
mitigation
plans
will
be
used
for,
as
they
called
a
sign-off
to
provide
transparency
to
interested
parties
and,
aside
from
functional
testing,
we
have
another
portent
area
in
this
project,
which
will
also
cover
non-functional
testing.
You
know
such
test
activities
will
cover
performance
and
benchmarking
tests,
security
tests,
the
transition
from
centralized
to
decentralized
Network
test
and
a
decentralized
network
simulation.
