Architecture
Consensus, execution, and the shared state that connects every runtime.
Consensus & finality
How the Simplex engine orders payloads, how finalized blocks become executed state, and why epoch changes need an execution barrier.
Execution pipeline
How verification, dependency scheduling, VM journals, and ordered state merging preserve transaction semantics while overlapping work.
Node runtime & roles
How svm-vm resolves configuration, recovers state, validates execution engines, and starts role-specific services.
System overview
Shared accounts and one consensus order let supported cross-VM calls contribute to a single transaction outcome.
State & persistence
Account views, transaction journals, common state commit, deferred WAL durability, QMDB roots, and authenticated recovery artifacts.
Virtual machines
Consensus, execution, and the shared state that connects every runtime.
