README.md - 3PC -> PVM, emphasize generic VMs and unmodified smart contracts from ETH ecosystem #217

Closed anders94 closed 1 year ago

anders94 commented 1 year ago

Rename 3PC to PVM
Frame the system as supporting VMs on which smart contracts run rather than smart contracts directly
Add "unmodified smart contracts from Ethereum" as a major selling point

Note: There are many things relying on the name 3pc in the code which will need to be updated once we firmly commit on the name, src/3pc/primary amongst them. (but also including the docker file names and contents as well as the docs in docs/programmability_*)

I am interested to hear @AlexRamRam 's thoughts on this change before proceeding

anders94 commented 1 year ago

I think maybe I should fold this into https://github.com/mit-dci/opencbdc-tx/pull/213. (Programmability - prep for merge)

AlexRamRam commented 1 year ago

I had some suggestions that I was going to put as part of comments for the paper. They are:

• SVMP: Scalable VM Platform • SSCP: Scalable Smart Contract Platform • SASC: Scalable Architecture for Smart contracts • PSCEP: Parallel Smart Contract Execution Platform • DVMHA: Distributed VM Host Architecture • DHAVM: Distributed Host Architecture for VMs • SHAVM: Scalable Host Architecture for VMs

3 letters are much nicer - I agree.
