Written draft

Assessment 1: Presentation

This task is to explore current state of the art developments in relation to DLT and to develop strategies to evaluate and select technologies that are most appropriate for a chosen domain.

Presentation

Assessment 2: Written Assignment

Produce a report per a scientific literature review publication, researching aspects included but not limited to, current development, applications, best practices, business models, future trends and so on, around DLTs. The research should critically evaluate state of the art developments in the development and deployment of DLTs. This must include an investigation of the technical and non-technical (legal, social, ethical and professional) related issues.

Written Assignment

<p>In this module you will explore current state of the art developments in relation to Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT). DLT are the foundation by which electronic transactions can be recorded and shared in a way that offers transparency without the need for a centralised authority, such as a bank in the finance industry. The module will enable you to develop strategies to evaluate and select DLT that are most appropriate for a chosen domain, including Internet of Things and FinTech.</p>
