Computational Integrity refers to the assurance that computations performed within a system are executed correctly and without alteration. It is the property that ensures the results of a computation accurately reflect the intended operations, irrespective of the environment in which they are processed. This concept is fundamental to the trustworthiness of decentralized applications and blockchain networks.
Context
The current focus on Computational Integrity is driven by the need for verifiable computation in privacy-preserving technologies and decentralized networks. Debates often revolve around the efficiency and security trade-offs of different verification methods, such as zero-knowledge proofs and trusted execution environments. Future advancements are expected to enhance the scalability and applicability of these integrity mechanisms across a wider range of distributed systems.
