Abstract

Transaction-enabled methods for providing provable access to a distributed ledger with a tokenized instruction set for polymer production processes are described. A method may include accessing a distributed ledger comprising an instruction set for a polymer production process and tokenizing the instruction set. The method may further include interpreting an instruction set access request and providing a provable access to the instruction set. The method may further include providing commands to a production tool of the polymer production process and recording the transaction on the distributed ledger.

Claims (38)

1. A method, comprising:

accessing a distributed ledger comprising an instruction set, wherein the instruction set comprises an instruction set for a polymer production process;

tokenizing the instruction set;

interpreting an instruction set access request;

in response to the instruction set access request, providing a provable access to the instruction set;

providing commands to a production tool of the polymer production process in response to the instruction set access request; and

recording a transaction on the distributed ledger in response to the providing commands to the production tool.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instruction set comprises an instruction set for a chemical synthesis subprocess of the polymer production process.

3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising providing commands to a production tool of the chemical synthesis subprocess of the polymer production process in response to the instruction set access request and recording a transaction on the distributed ledger in response to the providing commands to the production tool of the chemical synthesis subprocess of the polymer production process.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instruction set comprises a field programmable gate array (FPGA) instruction set.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instruction set further includes an application programming interface (API).

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the distributed ledger comprises a smart wrapper for a specific instruction set.

7. A method, comprising:

accessing a distributed ledger comprising an instruction set, wherein the instruction set comprises an instruction set for a chemical synthesis process;

tokenizing the instruction set;

interpreting an instruction set access request;

in response to the instruction set access request, providing a provable access to the instruction set;

providing commands to a production tool of the chemical synthesis process in response to the instruction set access request; and

recording a transaction on the distributed ledger in response to the providing commands to the production tool.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the instruction set comprises a field programmable gate array (FPGA) instruction set.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the instruction set comprises an instruction set for a chemical synthesis subprocess for a food preparation process.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising providing commands to a production tool of the chemical synthesis subprocess for the food preparation process in response to the instruction set access request and recording a transaction on the distributed ledger in response to the providing commands to the production tool of the chemical synthesis subprocess for the food preparation process.

11. The method of claim 7 , wherein the distributed ledger comprises instruction ledger operations.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the instruction ledger operations comprise determining an instruction access probability.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the instruction ledger operations comprise providing an aggregate view comprising a list of which parties have accessed the instruction set.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the aggregate view further comprises how many parties have accessed the instruction set.

15. A method, comprising:

accessing a distributed ledger comprising an instruction set, wherein the instruction set comprises an instruction set for a chemical crystal fabrication process;

tokenizing the instruction set;

interpreting an instruction set access request;

in response to the instruction set access request, providing a provable access to the instruction set;

providing commands to a production tool of the chemical crystal fabrication process in response to the instruction set access request; and

recording a transaction on the distributed ledger in response to the providing commands to the production tool.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the instruction set comprises a field programmable gate array (FPGA) instruction set.

17. The method of claim 15 , further comprising enabling a party to submit updates to the instruction set.

18. The method of claim 15 , further comprising updating the instruction set.

19. The method of claim 18 , further comprising storing the updated instruction set separately from the distributed ledger.

20. The method of claim 19 , further comprising providing the updated instruction set to a user.
