Hello, I am Shaokang, currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Technology at SUSTech in China. I maintain a robust academic record, boasting a GPA of 3.72 out of 4, placing me at the 48th position among 218 fellow students.

Following the guidance of my supervisor Yinqian Zhang in Teecert Lab, my academic journey is underscored by a deep passion for research in the realms of Blockchain, Consensus Algorithms, and Distributed Systems. I have actively contributed to the development of various research papers on these subjects, a testament to my dedication and expertise.

In addition to my research endeavors, I have cultivated a solid foundation in programming languages, including Golang, C++, Java, and Python. My proficiency extends to essential tools like Git and Linux, enabling me to navigate the complex landscape of computer science with ease.

📚 Research Projects

2022.04 - 2022.09, Second author / Byzantine Protocols with Asymptotically Optimal Communication Complexity
- With leveraging hash function, we propose a paradigm to reduce the communication complexity of normal BFT protocols.
2022.07 - 2023.07, Co-first author / Cerberus: High-Performance and Secure Multi-BFT Consensus via Dynamic Global Ordering
- Propose Cerberus, a high-performance and secure Multi-BFT protocol.
- Considering varying block rates of instances, we use timestamp to dynamically order consensus results across instances.
2023.04 - 2023.08, Co-first author / PHOENIX: Unburdening Multi-BFT Consensus from Expensive Global Ordering
- Propose PHOENIX, which unburdens Multi-BFT consensus from expensive global ordering.
- Considering transaction dependencies between instances, we deploy a transaction detecting and partitioning mechanism.
2022.09 - now, Collaborator / Confidential Blockchain
- Aim to enhance the security of blockchain technology by combining TEE with blockchain.
- It can mitigate the security risks and enhance the overall security of the blockchain network.
2023.09 - now, Leader / Multi-BFT scaling based on TEE
- Explore the use of TEE, using both software and hardware methods, to bolster the scalability and security of BFT systems.
- With leveraging TEE, we can elevate fault tolerance, decrease one consensus phrase, and enhance overall system security.
