DClähde
DClähde is a term used in speculative and fictional technology contexts to describe a decentralized data source that aggregates measurements from geographically distributed nodes. In these narratives, a DClähde acts as a provenance backbone, recording data with cryptographic guarantees and making it resistant to single-point failures. The word combines the German Lähde, meaning source, with the initials DC, which is variably interpreted as distributed computing, direct current, or data collection.
Technical concept: A DClähde typically comprises sensor or log nodes, a network transport layer, and a provenance
Applications and significance: In fiction and speculative studies, DClähde is proposed as a tool for robust
