Title: Bitcoin academic/research resources - theses, papers, articles, etc... Post by: de3mka on July 19, 2012, 10:38:46 AM Hi all,
I'm new to posting, but have been watching threads for about a year. I am planning on writing a diploma thesis at school on Bitcoin topic (from SW engineering perspective), but it's really difficult to find any "official" materials. By official I mean academic papers, other people theses, etc... So my idea is to create a thread where we could consolidate all such science related works and I hope many of you will find this helpful not only in case you want to write something by your own, but also as a reader. If you wish to extend the list, please always note the source, author and year (if known). Here I start with what I have found (the order is random except for Satoshi's paper, which is considered as basic starting point)
Thanks! Title: Re: Bitcoin academic/research resources - thesises, papers, articles, etc... Post by: John (John K.) on July 19, 2012, 10:40:56 AM I've whitelisted you so you can post this at either Development & Technical Discussion or Bitcoin Discussion. ;)

We have that, https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Research.On the other hand, I believe there are a lot more works in the world. Just at my school I know 1 guy who wrote a bachelor's thesis (in a small country:) ) and more are planning to do so. So, I assume, available resources dynamically increase day by day.

Although they are not strictly about Bitcoin as it is today, they bring many comparisons between Bitcoin and a proposed system and suggest many Bitcoin improvements.

Post by: capsqrl on July 20, 2012, 08:49:32 PM I took the liberty of adding your fine collection to the Research article on the wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Research), and reorganized the list of articles there into a nice sortable table. IMHO it's a more natural place for these kinds of things, and I hope you will join me in maintaining the article.
