The Uruguay Blockchain Summit will be held at the Golf Club of Uruguay from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, and will feature “experts in blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies…sharing their experiencies and skills in conferences, panels and keynote presentations.” The organisers claim “It will also be the ideal event for anyone interested in releasing the potential of this new technology for its activity.”

Vitor and Igor will be giving a presentation titled “From the basics to the latest advances in the NEO Blockchain: High performance agreements” in the Antonopoulos Hall at 2:00pm. The outline of the talk is as follows:

“While researchers have been extensively investigating novel consensus paradigms, the real implementation of those mechanisms is limited when real-world systems are the focus. Pseudo-codes are usually the main guidelines for turning that into reality, thus, an arduous and meticulous task is left to programmers. In this talk, Vitor and Igor will comment about the potential that Computational Intelligence and High Performance Computing techniques posses in order to provide real-world Blockchain solutions. The Neo Smart Economy will be the main point of the talk, discussing its aspects, perspectives and introducing its essential tools.”
