Topic: Review and analysis of hybrid consensus models in blockchain systems: balancing security, scalability, and permanence.
Description: Hybrid consensus models combine two or more consensus mechanisms, such as Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), and Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT), to leverage the strengths and mitigate the weaknesses of each.
The thesis should:
• Provide an overview and classify types of hybrid models (PoW+PoS, PoS+PBFT, PoA+PoW)
• Analyze trade-offs between security, energy efficiency, latency, and decentralization
• Evaluate real-world implementations and performance metrics
However, there is no need to develop a separate, fully functional prototype implementation, which will avoid significant programming efforts.
The thesis primarily focuses on conceptual contributions rather than combining conceptual work with implementation.
