Abstract
Blockchain technologies have received a large amount of attention, especially
since the adaptation and popularity of cryptocurrencies. It is well-established that
Blockchain technologies are the fuel of development of cryptocurrencies. There are
several widely discussed topics surrounding Blockchain technologies. In this paper,
the following topics will be discussed: consensus protocols within Blockchains,
sharding protocols of different types of Blockchains, and the scalability challenges
faced in the Blockchain community. This thesis will review current methodologies
of performing experiments on Blockchains. Especially, to avoid unnecessary time
and monetary cost of plugging in to the an existing Blockchain networks, this thesis
investigates in several Blockchain network simulators, a...[

Blockchain technologies have received a large amount of attention, especially
since the adaptation and popularity of cryptocurrencies. It is well-established that
Blockchain technologies are the fuel of development of cryptocurrencies. There are
several widely discussed topics surrounding Blockchain technologies. In this paper,
the following topics will be discussed: consensus protocols within Blockchains,
sharding protocols of different types of Blockchains, and the scalability challenges
faced in the Blockchain community. This thesis will review current methodologies
of performing experiments on Blockchains. Especially, to avoid unnecessary time
and monetary cost of plugging in to the an existing Blockchain networks, this thesis
investigates in several Blockchain network simulators, and introduces extended
functions added to the an existing simulator. This updated simulator achieves the
objectives of simulating different Blockchain network layers with relevant flexibilities.
To evaluate and showcase the usage of this simulator, this thesis will also
conduct experiments to explore options in cutting edge methodologies of sharding
protocols in open Blockchains.
