System configuration based on smart contracts

A method of configuring a plurality of aspects of a system, the method comprising:

• providing, by a computing system, a control smart contract and a plurality of subordinate smart contracts on a blockchain,
• wherein each subordinate smart contract receives a respective input regarding a respective one of the plurality of aspects and outputs a respective decision;
• and
• wherein the control smart contract controls a configuration process incorporating the subordinate contracts according to the decisions of a sequence of the subordinate contracts;
• conducting, by the computing system, the configuration process according to the control smart contract;
• and
• configuring the aspects of the system according to the decisions of the sequence of subordinate smart contracts.

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a non-transitory, computer-readable memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
• providing, by a computing system, a control smart contract and a plurality of subordinate smart contracts on a blockchain,
• wherein each subordinate smart contract receives a respective input regarding a respective one of a plurality of aspects and outputs a respective decision;
• conducting, by a computing system, a configuration process by executing a sequence of subordinate smart contracts according to the control smart contract;
• and
• configuring the aspects of the system according to the decisions of the sequence of subordinate smart contracts.
