CRYPTOCURRENCY MINER AND STATISTICAL BUILT-IN SELF TESTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240056307 titled 'CRYPTOCURRENCY MINER AND STATISTICAL BUILT-IN SELF TESTS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a cryptocurrency miner that consists of compute modules and a controller. Each compute module includes a stats store, a manager, and compute engines. The controller is connected to the compute modules via a serial bus and distributes jobs to the compute modules. The manager in each compute module distributes jobs among the compute engines and validates candidate hits found by the compute engines. The manager reports validated candidate hits to the controller and updates statistical information in the stats store based on the validation of the candidate hits.
- Compute modules with stats store, manager, and compute engines
- Controller distributes jobs to compute modules via serial bus
- Manager in each compute module distributes jobs among compute engines
- Compute engines process jobs and report candidate hits
- Manager validates candidate hits and reports to controller
- Stats store updated based on validation of candidate hits
Potential Applications
- Cryptocurrency mining - Data processing tasks requiring parallel computing
Problems Solved
- Efficient distribution of jobs in a cryptocurrency mining operation - Validation of candidate hits in a mining process
Benefits
- Improved mining efficiency - Enhanced job distribution and validation process - Increased overall performance of cryptocurrency mining operations
Original Abstract Submitted
a cryptocurrency miner includes compute modules and a controller. each compute module includes a stats store, a manager, and compute engines. the controller is coupled to the compute modules via a serial bus and distributes one or more jobs to the compute modules via the serial bus. each manager distributes jobs received by its respective compute module among the compute engines of its respective compute module. each compute engine processes a job and reports a candidate hit found by processing the job. each manager validates a candidate hit reported by one of the compute engines of its respective compute module, reports the validated candidate hit to the controller; and updates statistical information in the stats store of its respective compute module based on validation of the candidate hit.
