 Formally, Polkadot is a replicated sharded state machine designed to resolve the scalability and interoperability among blockchains. In Polkadot vocabulary, shards are called *parachains* and Polkadot *relay chain* is part of the protocol ensuring global consensus among all the parachains. The Polkadot relay chain protocol, henceforward called *Polkadot protocol*, can itself be considered as a replicated state machine on its own. As such, the protocol can be specified by identifying the state machine and the replication strategy.
