Linear End-To-End Time refers to the total duration required for a process or transaction to complete sequentially from its initiation to its final confirmation, without any parallelization or branching. In blockchain systems, this metric measures the time from when a transaction is broadcast until it is irrevocably recorded on the ledger. It provides a direct measure of latency within a system where operations occur in a strict, ordered progression. Optimizing this time is critical for system efficiency and user experience.
Context
The discussion around Linear End-To-End Time is a central concern for blockchain scalability and performance, particularly in applications requiring rapid transaction finality. A key development involves Layer 2 scaling solutions and faster consensus mechanisms designed to reduce this duration. Future advancements will aim to further decrease end-to-end processing times while maintaining decentralization and security, making blockchain networks more competitive with traditional high-speed financial systems.
This new protocol is the first to achieve linear end-to-end time for maliciously secure, constant-round secret-shared shuffling, enabling practical, private computation primitives.
