Abstract: Blockchain technology has gained widespread recognition and adoption in various domains, but its implementation beyond crypto currencies faces a significant challenge - poor scalability. The serial execution of transactions in existing blockchain systems hampers transaction throughput and increases network latency, limiting overall system performance. In response to this limitation, this paper proposes a static analysis-driven data partitioning approach to enhance blockchain system scalability. By enabling parallel and distributed transaction execution through a simultaneous block-level transaction approach, the proposed technique substantially improves transaction throughput and reduces network latency. The study employs a hybrid shard generation algorithm within the Geth node of the blockchain network to create multiple shards or partitions. Experimental results indicate promising outcomes, with miners experiencing a remarkable speedup of 1.91x and validators achieving 1.90x, along with a substantial 35.34% reduction in network latency. These findings provide valuable insights and offer scalable solutions, empowering researchers and practitioners to address scalability concerns and promoting broader adoption of blockchain technology across various industries.
