Abstract

Software for immutably storing computational determinations using distributed ledgers. The software performs the following operations: (i) receiving an indication that a first computational model is ready to be deployed; (ii) storing a copy of the first computational model in a first distributed ledger; (iii) computing a hash of the first computational model using a cryptographic hash function; (iv) receiving an indication that a second computational model has been used to produce a first computational determination; (vi) receiving a hash of the second computational model; and (vii) in response to determining that the hash of the second computational model matches the hash of the first computational model, storing a record of the first computational determination in a second distributed ledger, wherein the record of the first computational determination identifies the second computational model as being the first computational model and includes the hash of the first computational model.
