Input Output’s Global Library of Research Papers

Charles Hoskinson shared his awe at the approaching 200-paper milestone as the community celebrates its increasing research store. The protocol’s creator, Input Output Global, has curated a large library that offers a wealth of information that has been peer-reviewed and accepted for presentation at renowned academic conferences.

The first paper, “Ouroboros: A Provably Secure Proof-of-Stake Blockchain Protocol,” presented at Crypto 2017, demonstrates the network’s dedication to academic excellence. This paper, which launched Cardano, has been cited over 1,200 times, demonstrating its tremendous impact on the broader blockchain community.

Cardano’s journey, beginning in 2015, has been guided by the vision to transform the design and development of cryptocurrencies. Charles Hoskinson, in essays like “Why Cardano” and the “Cardano Whiteboard” video, laid out the fundamental ideas underpinning the platform. The commitment to a research-driven approach has been integral to Cardano’s identity, shaping its development philosophy and establishing a solid foundation of best practices and contributions.

The ecosystem continues to evolve with research updates and improvements. The development team at Input Output Global has focused on enhancing core technologies, addressing network issues, and refining smart contract capabilities through the Plutus platform. Notably, Cardano’s integration of Hydra Nodes has facilitated clients in submitting and validating transactions, contributing to the platform’s overall efficiency and scalability.

Cardano Pursues Academic Partnerships

In addition to its internal research efforts, the protocol has actively pursued collaborations with universities to advance blockchain research. Notably, the Cardano Foundation established a three-year collaboration with the University of Zurich’s Blockchain Center, signaling a commitment to education and research initiatives. 

Input Output Global further strengthened its ties with academia by collaborating with the University of Edinburgh to create the blockchain industry’s first “decentralization index.”

Cardano’s innovative spirit extends beyond blockchain technology, as evidenced by its recent foray into Artificial Intelligence (AI). The beta launch of Girolamo, an internet-enabled generative chatbot, represents a significant milestone in Cardano’s integration of AI within its ecosystem.
