如果有人要问，iota会干什么？
我的回答是，iota想改变世界。

Coordicide
List and solve all the problems on the way to a Coo-less IOTA. This project is mostly theoretical, and includes threat analysis, mathematical modeling, simulation, and formalization of our consensus protocol.
杀鼠剂
列出并解决在无IOTA的路上遇到的所有问题。这个项目主要是理论上的，包括威胁分析、数学建模、模拟和共识协议的形式化。
Spam prevention and detection
We are looking for creative ways of dealing with FPGAs and asymmetric PoW. We are examining various options, mostly around the idea of throttling noisy neighbors. Our aim is to isolate spammers and protect the rest of the network.
防止和检测垃圾邮件
我们正在寻找处理FPGAs和非对称PoW的创新方法。我们正在研究各种选择，主要是围绕抑制嘈杂邻居的想法。我们的目标是隔离垃圾信息散布者并保护网络的其余部分。
Automatic peer discovery
Given the community input and various ecosystem projects, we are taking a closer look at the security implications of auto-peering. Although this is a complex research topic, it is important for us to formulate a well-founded position on this matter, and carefully assess the risks involved.
自动对等发现
鉴于社区的投入和各种生态系统项目，我们正在密切关注自动监测的安全影响。虽然这是一个复杂的研究课题，但我们必须就这一问题形成一个有充分根据的立场，并仔细评估所涉及的风险。
Economic Incentives
Continuing the recent efforts of Popov et al with their Nash Equilibria work, we are analyzing the IOTA incentive model using increasingly more realistic game theoretical models. This incentive analysis plays a fundamental role in understanding the Tangle behavior and its stability when deployed at scale.
经济激励
继续Popov等人最近的努力与纳什均衡的工作，我们正在分析IOTA激励模型使用越来越现实的博弈理论模型。这种激励分析在理解大规模部署时的缠结行为及其稳定性方面起着基础性作用。
Consensus Algorithm spec
We are working on detailed spec of the Tangle consensus algorithm, building upon the foundation set by the white paper. The main purpose of this doc is allowing public peer review of the algorithm.
一致性算法规范
我们正在白皮书所建立的基础上，对Tangle共识算法的详细规范进行研究。该文档的主要目的是允许公开对算法进行同行评审。
Cryptography spec
This spec details all the cryptographic elements of IOTA: the hash functions, signing schemes, and threat model assumptions. The purpose of this document is to provide a basis for a public peer review and audit.
加密规范
该规范详细介绍了IOTA的所有加密元素：散列函数、签名方案和威胁模型假设。本文件的目的是为公众同行审查和审计提供依据。
Attack analysis
This project is related to the Coordicide efforts, and involves analytical and numerical analysis of various sorts of attacks, from the simplest side-chain double spend to the more complex thug, parasite chain, and splitting attacks. We are working to get numerical estimations for the cost of attacking the network, and making sure the price tag stays prohibitively in the post-Coordinator world.
攻击分析
该项目涉及到协同杀灭努力，涉及到对各种攻击的分析和数值分析，从最简单的侧链加倍支出到更复杂的暴徒、寄生虫链和分裂攻击。我们正在努力获得攻击网络的代价的数值估计，并确保价格标签在后协调世界中保持令人望而却步。
Hub
While a number of exchanges have had great success integrating IOTA, it is certainly not the easiest task in the world. Hub simplifies exchange integration of IOTA so that IOTA can be listed in weeks, not months.
中心
尽管许多交易所在整合IOTA方面取得了巨大的成功，但这肯定不是世界上最容易的任务。Hub简化了IOTA的交换集成，这样IOTA就可以在几周内列出，而不是几个月。
IRI
The IOTA Reference Implementation is the de facto model for running an IOTA node. It is the place where both community and Foundation engineers meet and collaborate to improve the Tangle, and the focus of our network target.
国际关系
IOTA引用实现是运行IOTA节点的事实上的模型。这是一个社区和基金会工程师聚会和合作的地方，以改善混乱，以及我们的网络目标的焦点。
Coo-free IRI
As it stands, IRI does not support the Tangle as described in the white paper. In order to support alternate consensus mechanisms, the current approach to consensus must be abstracted out so that it can later be replaced by a fully distributed mechanism. This project is separate from, but closely related to Coordicide, and this separation allows us to work on different parts of the problem in parallel.
无IRI
照目前情况来看，IRI并不支持白皮书中所描述的纠缠。为了支持备选的协商一致机制，目前的协商一致办法必须抽象出来，以便以后可以用一个充分分配的机制来取代。这个项目是独立的，但与Rightsicide相关，并且这种分离允许我们平行地处理问题的不同部分。
Qubic
Enable smart contracts, oracles, and outsourced computation on the Tangle.
库比奇
在Tangle上启用智能契约、预言和外包计算。
Trinity
While the original desktop IOTA wallet got the job done, it is not exactly the best in terms of user experience. With Trinity, IOTA brings a top quality user experience together with in-depth security audits, enabling more people to use IOTA easily and safely.
三位一体
虽然最初的桌面IOTA钱包完成了任务，但就用户体验而言，它并不完全是最好的。有了Trinity，IOTA带来了高质量的用户体验和深入的安全审计，使得更多的人可以轻松安全地使用IOTA。
Local Snapshots & Permanodes
Some IOTA nodes care about the entire history of the Tangle, and some don't. As the Tangle scales, it would become impossible for smaller nodes to keep up. Allowing for local snapshots and permanodes are the 'two sides of the same coin' needed to allow for either permanent and selective storage as required for a particular use case.
局部快照和高锰酸盐
一些IOTA节点关心Tangle的整个历史，而有些节点则不关心。随着缠结的规模，小节点将不可能跟上。允许本地快照和永久存储是允许特定用例所需的“同一枚硬币的两面”，以允许永久和选择性存储。
C Client
Most existing client libraries are written in higher-level languages unsuitable for embedded devices. Since IOTA is designed for the IoT, it will ultimately be necessary to support small, low-powered, embedded devices, and C is the 'lowest common denominator' programming language for many of these potential applications.
客户
大多数现有的客户机库是用不适合嵌入式设备的高级语言编写的。由于IoT是为物联网设计的，因此它最终将需要支持小型、低功耗的嵌入式设备，而对于许多这些潜在的应用程序，C是“最小公分母”编程语言。
MAM+
While MAM already exists, it is missing a few key features and documentation. A formal specification and improved version of MAM leveraging public-key encryption is currently being written by the experts from the Research Institute for Applied Problems of Mathematics and Informatics at Belarusian State University.
MAM+
虽然MAM已经存在，但它缺少一些关键特性和文档。白俄罗斯国立大学数学和信息学应用问题研究所的专家目前正在编写一种利用公钥加密的MAM的正式规范和改进版本。
Tanglescope
It's difficult to understand, critique, or improve upon what we can't see. Performance and monitoring tools such as TangleScope allow researchers, engineers and interested 3rd parties to gain deeper insights into the Tangle's network capabilities.
缠结镜
很难理解、批判或改进我们看不到的东西。TangleScope等性能和监控工具使研究人员、工程师和其他有兴趣的第三方能够对Tangle的网络能力有更深入的了解。
PoWBox
One of the difficulties in developing for IOTA is waiting for Proof of Work results for every transaction. Additionally, small or low-powered devices may simply be unable to do PoW in a realistic timeframe. The PoWBox provides an example of how PoW may simply be outsourced to a more powerful machine, and demonstrates the flexibility of the IOTA protocol
PoWBox
IOTA开发中的一个困难是等待每笔交易的工作证明结果。此外，小型或低功耗的设备可能根本无法在现实的时间内完成PoW。PoWBox提供了一个示例，说明如何将PoW简单地外包给更强大的机器，并展示了IOTA协议的灵活性
iota.lib.js
The JavaScript client library is widely used for IOTA development, and serves as a reference point for client libraries in other languages.
Iota.lib.js
JavaScript客户机库被广泛用于IOTA开发，并作为其他语言的客户机库的参考点。
Curl+
Since replacing Curl-P with the industry standard Keccak hash function, we have enlisted the help of the renowned cryptography experts from CyberCrypt. CyberCrypt's experts will take what we've learned from Curl-P, work to understand IOTA's specific requirements, and design a better, more secure lightweight hash function specifically for the IoT.
卷曲+
自从将Curl-P替换为行业标准Keccak散列函数以来，我们已经得到了来自CyberCrypt的著名密码学专家的帮助。CyberCrypt的专家将采用我们从Curl-P中学到的东西，努力理解IoT的特定需求，并专门针对IoT设计一个更好、更安全的轻量级哈希函数。
