Execution separation refers to the architectural design principle where different components or layers of a system operate independently in terms of their processing and resource utilization. In blockchain contexts, this might involve separating the execution layer from data availability or consensus layers. This modular approach enhances scalability, allows for specialized optimization, and improves system resilience. It permits parallel processing and easier upgrades of individual components.
Context
Discussions around execution separation are prominent in the development of next-generation blockchain architectures, particularly for improving scalability and throughput. News often covers advancements in layer-2 solutions and modular blockchain designs that leverage this principle. The goal is to enable blockchain networks to handle a greater volume of transactions and support more complex applications without compromising security or decentralization.
