Linear Communication refers to a straightforward, one-way transmission of information from a sender to a receiver without immediate feedback or complex interaction. In the context of blockchain and distributed systems, it might describe a basic data flow or message broadcast where the primary concern is the delivery of information. This contrasts with interactive protocols that require multiple rounds of exchange. Such communication prioritizes simplicity and directness.
Context
While fundamental, Linear Communication patterns within distributed systems are often considered for specific, non-interactive tasks where overhead needs minimization. Discussions in blockchain often focus on how to combine efficient linear data propagation with more complex, interactive consensus mechanisms. Research aims to optimize the balance between communication simplicity and the need for robust verification in decentralized networks.
