Definition ∞ A lightweight communication model is an architectural approach designed to minimize the data overhead and computational resources required for interactions between network participants or components. In blockchain systems, this model aims to facilitate efficient data exchange without imposing heavy processing burdens on nodes or devices. It is particularly relevant for scaling solutions and mobile applications where resource constraints are significant. This approach prioritizes speed and efficiency in data transmission.
Context ∞ The need for efficient data exchange in highly distributed and resource-constrained environments drives the development of lightweight communication models in blockchain. Discussions often center on optimizing data packet sizes and reducing the computational cost of cryptographic operations. Future innovations aim to further enhance interoperability and throughput for cross-chain communications and decentralized application interactions.
