Abstract

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

Claims (23)

1. A method, comprising:

accessing a distributed ledger comprising an instruction set, wherein the instruction set comprises an instruction set for a biological 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 biological 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 a field programmable gate array (FPGA) instruction set.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instruction set comprises an instruction set for a food preparation subprocess of the biological production process.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising providing commands to a production tool of the food preparation subprocess of the biological 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 food preparation subprocess of the biological production process.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the instruction set further includes an interface description.

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

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

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the distributed ledger comprises instruction ledger operations.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the instruction ledger operations comprise determining an instruction access probability.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the instruction ledger operations comprise providing an aggregate view comprising a list of which parties have accessed the instruction set.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the aggregate view further comprises how many parties have accessed the instruction set.

12. The method of claim 1 , further comprising updating the instruction set.

13. The method of claim 12 , further comprising storing the updated instruction set separately from the distributed ledger.

14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising providing the updated instruction set to a user.

15. The method of claim 14 , further comprising pushing the updated instruction set.

16. The method of claim 12 , further comprising creating a modified instruction set.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the distributed ledger is a blockchain.
