    title = "Blockchain consensus based on a work : an interpretation by the thermodynamics and application to state machine and to blockchain architecture",
    abstract = "This article aims to explore the affinity between thermodynamic and blockchain. An approach is presenting consisting of comparing the PoW process and an inverse Carnot cycle with the proposal of abstract space-time parameters. This opens a thought on where the trust is and how to model the state machine associated with blockchain consensus towards a possible architecture based on a layer model with a consensus layer. This paper presents a theoretical approach to fundamental issues
related to blockchain and is both educational.",
