Bitcoin’s underlying technology is blockch ain\, one does not exist without the other. However\, many individuals s oon realized the true power and seemingly unlimited potential of blockch ain technology. Over the last 8.5 years\, we have seen innovation paving the way for what many deem the second generation of the internet. To ma ny this is still the early days of blockchain technology\, even though i t has been 8\, going on 9 years since introduction. Our understanding of a blockchain\, possible applications\, and the world of possibilities a ssociated is rapidly evolving and changing. \;\n \;\nThis talk wil l discuss the basics of blockchain and touch on the concept of public\, private\, and hybrid blockchain\; specifically\, Dragonchain. \;\n 3\;\nOur Presenter\, Eileen Quenin \;\n \;\nEileen Quenin is a UX Strategist and tech evangelist for Dragonchain\, an open source platform . It’s is best described as a distributed crypto ledger framework protoc ol that makes it easy to create cost-efficient business networks where v irtually anything of value can be tracked and traded. \;\n \;\nEil een is active in the Seattle start up ecosystem. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Design and a Master of Science degree in Engineer ing with a focus on Human Computer Interaction. \;\n \;\nPrior to joining working on Dragonchain\, she spent 3 years in Amazon Global Paym ents guiding product development for gift cards\, AmazonPay and Amazon P ayPhrase. She holds a patent on techniques for intelligent selection of a currency preference conversion. \;\n \;\nPrior to that\, Eileen worked at LexisNexis on fraud prevention\, background checks\, public re cords\, and identity management solutions was instrumental in bringing t o market visualization and drawing tools designed for creating link anal ysis charts—visual relationships between individuals\, addresses\, vehic les\, corporations\, and other items.\n\nTags: refreshPDX\, blockchain\, dragonchain\, ux\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/12504725 69 URL:http://rfrshpdx.org/dragonchain/ SUMMARY:UX Using Blockchain LOCATION:FINE: 1140 SW 11th Ave \n Suite 200\, Por tland OR 97205 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171204T203617Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171205T200000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171205T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171204T203617Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20171204T203617Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250472933 DESCRIPTION:Abstract \;\nDo you speak blockchain?

Students $5 with ID\; $15 others. You ca n walk in\; we appreciate your registering so we order enough refreshmen ts. \;\n \;\n \;\nOverview - Business Applications of Blockchai n Technology \;\nPresented by Mark Wheeler\, Portland State Universi ty \;\n \;\nBlockchain technology is being talked about as one of the next big innovations to take hold across multiple industries. Busine sses who focus on transactions\, contracts\, and assets management are j ust a few of the initial sectors of the economy which will be disrupted. As the underlying technology begins to take hold\, time-consuming and l abor-intensive functions will be replaced by automated and “always on” s mart processes. Centralized models of trust and authenticity will be rep laced by decentralized services and crowd-based consensus algorithms. 3\;\n \;\nThere will not be one blockchain but millions\, each built on an application-specific architectures. Any store of information that requires exchange or validation across indirectly related entities will reside on a blockchain. Blockchains are safe\, secure\, and immutable — but all blockchains are not created equal. We will explore the subject by examining several current generations of blockchain implementations.& #13\;\n \;\nTopics during this session include: \;\n \;\n \; \nArchitecture\, Protocols\, Algorithms \;\n \;\n \;\nDistribut ed Ledgers\, Smart Contracts \;\n \;\n \;\nTrust / Consensus Sy stems \;\n \;\n \;\nDecentralization\, Virtual Computing Enviro nment \;\n \;\n \;\n \;\nSpeaker \;\n \;\nMark Wheeler is a Blockchain technology enthusiast attending Portland State Universi ty majoring in Supply Chain Management.
