Bounded Complexity refers to a design principle in system architecture where the intricacy of a component or module is deliberately limited. This concept ensures that a system’s various parts remain manageable and understandable, preventing excessive interdependencies. In blockchain contexts, it means restricting the scope of smart contract logic or protocol rules to enhance security and auditability.
Context
The application of bounded complexity is critical in designing secure and resilient blockchain protocols, particularly in preventing exploits stemming from overly elaborate code. Debates often address the trade-off between functional richness and the need for simplified, verifiable systems. Future advancements in formal verification methods aim to further manage and confirm the bounded nature of complex digital systems.
