2017年1月,兰德欧洲受英国标准机构(BSI)委托开展快速研究,探究标准在支持分布式分类技术(DLT)/区块链方面的潜在作用.这份报告记录了这项为期六周的研究成果.DLT/区块链指的是分布于多个地点(即一个分布式数据库)的数据库,它就像一个电子账本一样,可以用于记录和管理事务.虽然这项技术目前还处于早期阶段且挑战仍然艰巨,但很明显,DLT/区块链在多个领域都有着巨大的潜在机遇.此外,与DLT/区块链相关的标准化工作近期也在逐渐开展,国际标准化组织(简称ISO)还成立了区块链和电子分布式分类技术委员会.%RAND Europe was commissioned by the British Standards Institution (BSI) in January 2017 to carry out a rapid scoping study to examine the potential role of standards in supporting Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT)/Blockchain. This report documents the results of the study, which was conducted over a six-week period.1 DLT/Blockchain refers to a type of database which is spread over multiple locations (i.e. a distributed database) and which can be used like a digital ledger to record and manage transactions. Although the technology is at a relatively early stage of adoption and significant challenges remain, it is becoming apparent that DLT/Blockchain holds the potential for major opportunities across several sectors. Furthermore, standardisation efforts related to DLT/Blockchain have recently gathered momentum with the setting up of the International Organization for Standardization (shortened to ISO) technical committee on Blockchain and electronic distributed ledger technologies.
