• Abstract summary: This paper reports on how to leverage the emphOntology for Agents, Systems, and Integration of Services as a general means for the semantic representation of smart contracts stored on blockchain as software agents. Special attention is paid to non-fungible tokens (NFTs), whose management through the ERC721 standard is presented as a case study.

• Abstract: Blockchains are gaining momentum due to the interest of industries and people in \emph{decentralized applications} (Dapps), particularly in those for trading assets through digital certificates secured on blockchain, called tokens. As a consequence, providing a clear unambiguous description of any activities carried out on blockchains has become crucial, and we feel the urgency to achieve that description at least for trading. This paper reports on how to leverage the \emph{Ontology for Agents, Systems, and Integration of Services} ("\ONT{}") as a general means for the semantic representation of smart contracts stored on blockchain as software agents. Special attention is paid to non-fungible tokens (NFTs), whose management through the ERC721 standard is presented as a case study.

• The Latency Price of Threshold Cryptosystem in Blockchains [52.359230560289745]
  We study the interplay between threshold cryptography and a class of blockchains that use Byzantine-fault tolerant (BFT) consensus protocols. Existing approaches for threshold cryptosystems introduce a latency overhead of at least one message delay for running the threshold cryptographic protocol. We propose a mechanism to eliminate this overhead for blockchain-native threshold cryptosystems with tight thresholds.

Unlike L1 blockchains, during periods of transaction surges, zkSync and Arbitrum experienced lower median gas fees, attributable to the compression of L2 transactions for a single L1 batch.

  In second-generation blockchains such as the ledger is coupled with smart contracts. The current implementation of smart contracts as arbitrary programming constructs has made them susceptible to dangerous bugs. We propose here to recompose the split and recover the reliability of databases by formalizing a notion of contract modelled as a finite-state automaton.
