The crates folder of Chronos includes core functional code crates and utility libraries, etc.
- This verifiable logical clock crate implements a verifiable logical clock construct.
- The clock can be used in a peer-to-peer network to order events.
- Any node in the network can verify the correctness of the clock.
- A simple accumulator application.
- Each accumulator node maintains a set of strings. Upon receiving a string from a client, the node adds the string to its state, and broadcast the new state to other nodes in the network.
- All nodes eventually converge to the same state, by merging received states into their own states.
- A causally consistent data store inspired by COPS.
- The data store maintains a set of key-value pairs.
- It provides causal consistency to clients.
- Some common crypto utilities, signatures, verify, and hash functions for elliptic curve.
- This module contains implementations of a verifiable random function, currently only ECVRF.
- VRFs can be used in the consensus protocol for leader election.
