14:00 - 15:00 Practical Architectures for Interoperability between DLs and other Web components and Architectures - Adi Ben-Ari (CEO of Applied Blockchain Ltd.)

Abstract: Theoretical assumptions for distribution of actors, private keys, and web components in distributed applications often have practical implications that render them sub optimal. In this workshop we examine a number of real world distributed applications, and the practical considerations in designing their architectures.
