SystemTechniques · 9Primitives · 43 stablecoin Model checking and formal proofembedded · medium: Exhaustively explore a model's reachable states (or prove its invariants with a solver or proof assistant) to find rule violations with a shortest counterexample trace.›Payment state machinefinance · medium: Persisted state machine for a payment lifecycle (authorize, capture, void, refund) that treats timeouts as unknown, retries with the same key and applies webhooks idempotently.›Reorg safe chain indexingfinance · medium: Index blockchain events with confirmation depth, reorg rollback and finality trackingHardware security module (HSM)security · medium: A tamper-resistant device or service that generates keys, signs, decrypts and wraps with them internally, and releases a key only as ciphertext.›Threshold cryptographysecurity · medium: Distributed key generation and t-of-n threshold decryption or signing without a single key holderCDCL SAT solvingoptimization · medium: Search for a satisfying assignment, learn a new constraint from every dead end, and jump back past irrelevant choices; handles industrial formulas with millions of clauses.›Dpll toptimization · medium: SMT architecture: CDCL over boolean abstraction plus theory solvers, theory propagation, Nelson-OppenEvent sourcingfinance · low: Persist state changes as an append-only stream of immutable events per entity; current state is a fold over them, guarded by expected-version appends.›Idempotency keysfinance · low: Client-chosen unique key per logical operation, stored with a request fingerprint and the final response, so retries replay the first result instead of acting twice.›Merkle treedata-structures · low: Hash tree for verifying and diffing large datasets with logarithmic proofsDouble-entry ledgerfinance · low: Append-only journal of transactions whose postings sum to zero per currency; balances are derived, so money can only move, never appear or vanish.›Money representationfinance · low: Store money as integer minor units with an explicit currency exponent, compute in wider integers, and round once with a named rounding mode.›Reconciliationfinance · low: Match internal ledger records against bank and processor statements by reference, then amount and date window; every unmatched or mismatched item becomes an exception.›Fuzzy string matchingsearch-sort · low: Edit distance, Jaro-Winkler and trigram indexes for approximate name and address matchingAuthorization models (RBAC, ABAC, R…security · low: How to decide who may do what to which object; roles for coarse rules, relationships for sharing, and checks on every object.›ECDSA signaturessecurity · low: The elliptic-curve signature standardised in FIPS 186-5 (P-256) and used by secp256k1 ledgers; 64-byte signatures, but a repeated or biased nonce leaks the private key.›Swiss tabledata-structures · low: Open-addressing hash table that filters 8-16 slots at once with 1-byte hash tags and SIMD, giving fast lookups at 87.5 % load.›BFS and DFSgraphs · low: The two basic graph traversals; BFS gives hop distances and levels, DFS gives discovery/finish order for cycles, components and topological order.›Binary decision diagramsoptimization · low: A reduced ordered BDD stores a Boolean function as a shared DAG that is unique per variable order, so equivalence is one integer compare and counting is one pass.›Exponential backoff with jittersystems · low: Retry after delays that grow geometrically and are randomized, so failed clients spread out instead of hammering a recovering service in synchronized waves.›Hierarchical state machinesystems · low: Nest states so a substate inherits its parent's reactions and only overrides what differs, with ordered entry and exit actions along the path.›Message sequence numbersdistributed · low: A per-stream counter on every message lets the receiver detect loss, duplicates and reordering, ack cheaply and resume after reconnect with "send from N".›Journaled state revertstorage · low: Undo journal of state writes enabling nested checkpoints and cheap revert+ 2 more techniques+ 27 more primitives
