Provide a reliable basis for university students to learn blockchain through Hyperledger Fabric, and, optionally, other Hyperledger technologies.
This course is a 7.5 ECTS master level course that assumes 3 hours of theory per week + 1.5 weeks of practical classes (laboratory) per week. This course implements the laboratory clsases.
The course is divided into two modules: Module I introduces the technology (labs 1-3) and Module II focuses on Hyperledger Fabric (labs 4-8). For universities using trimesters, the course can be separated into the two modules (1 per trimester).
For universities using semesters, the whole course (labs 1-9) can be taught in that semester.
- Understand the concepts in which blockchain is based (labs 1 and 2), what is blockchain, and which problems it can solve (lab 3)
- (optionally) Know how Ethereum and Hyperledger Besu work. I will be able to write simple smart contracts and deploy them on several networks (lab 4)
- Know Hyperledeger Fabric's components in detail, as well as its architecture and transactional model (labs 5,6,7)
- Be able to write smart contracts (chaincode) for Hyperledger Fabric, and bootstrap a Hyperledger Fabric network running those contracts (labs 5,6,7)
- Understand advanced concepts on the area of consensus, using Hyperledger Umbra (labs 8, 9)
