AUTHENTICATED NETWORK

An authenticated network having a plurality of nodes is disclosed. Each node includes a transaction unit and an identification core. The identification core includes a key generator. The key generators of the identification cores generate a plurality of unique pairs of secret and public keys. The public key serves as a logical address of the transaction unit. Another authenticated network having a plurality of nodes is also disclosed, in which the identification core further includes a private key. The key generators of the identification cores generate a plurality of public keys from the private keys of the identification cores. Each public key serves as a logical address of the transaction unit of a corresponding node. One of the public keys and one of the private keys form a unique pair. Thus, the transaction unit manages the information communication among the plurality of nodes. The identification core manages an authentication of the nodes.
