[polinikita]

Parameter

• Data metrics plugin implemented and integrated w/ ELK stack
• Automated batch profiling (w/ Andrea/Vivian)
• Expected output for each configuration
  1. Configuration List
  2. Profiling Result
• Output example
• Enhancing the auto-profiling flow with iota-core
  • Keep updating the iota-core version
  • Enhancing the auto-run/data-collecting/plotting script
• Collecting iota-core simulations results with different parameter values
  • From current observation, the default parameter values are good
  • Current profiling results
  • Summary will be given in 2 weeks

Networking

• Working on ICBC submission
  • Paper to be ready by the end of the week
  • Working on paper about ICCA+
  • Goal is to generalize and compare with other access control systems (eg, Transaction Fee Mechanism paper)
  • Highlight difference between first-price auction and fully posted price
  • Leaderless writing is the key enabler

Incentives

• Working on ICBC submission (IOTA 2.0 Incentives)

Finalization

• Working on papers (SoK, Finality, Sortition)
• SoK on DAG-based consensus protocols (flow chart "Evolution", systemization "attacks", systemization "consensus typess")
• Formalization of reaching partial order on object-based transactions
