Technical Updates 🤖

MRT & CVM R&D

1. Continued to advance the development of the OpenCL in FPGA model, and have so far successfully added support for 12 models.
2. Doubled the performance of CVM-Runtime FPGA operators.
3. All operators of Z3 Prover have been verified in the range of values ​​of the verification set; the code is a deterministic executable.
4. The formalization code version has been further updated to 14 operators, including matrix multiplication and repeat operators.

Cortex Full Node Development

1. Optimized the file system’s code structure, separated the Torrent FS project, and adjusted the file seeding strategy.
2. Full node remote mining optimization; added transaction index structure.
3. Fixed the logic of unit test code and have now completed 40% of the package.
4. Continued to advance the chain-ai-demo project. At present, basic functional processes such as real-time return results, image uploading, and on-chain smart contract inference have been implemented. The robustness of the entire code base and the real-time image recognition function of the client are being tested.
5. Started to update the latest version of CVM-Runtime and test the synchronization of MainNet and TestNet.

DeFi Development

1. Completed the integrated operation of Cortex AI DeFi on the data interface of Ethereum MainNet and Cortex MainNet.
2. Monitored the running status of Cortex AI DeFi and continued to optimize.
3. Continued to organize and maintain the available contracts on the Cortex TestNet.

Miscellaneous

1. Researched HyperLedger Fabric, investigating its consensus, network, storage, chain code and other parts to complete deployment and testing.
