# Glossary

**Transparent computation:** xxx 

**Smoking gun:** Is a reference to an object or fact that serves as conclusive of something that happened.

**Certificate**: is definitive proof that something happened

**Transcripts:** Network execution of a task results in an augmented certificate called a transcript, a descriptive object relative to the realm of traditional verifiable computing.

**Task Modules:** Deterministic function code libraries instantiated as "Tasks."

**Tasks:** Instances of Task Modules.

**TaskId:** This is the identification of a specific task. That task should be used by calling to this specific ID. 

**Instrumentation:** 

**Task Developers:** These are the ones who build the Tasks.

**Task Requester:** These are the ones who initiate Task Requests by calling a REST API endpoint hosted by the Coordination Hub.

**Node Providers:** These are the ones who provide their nodes to the Truebit network.

**Coordination Hub:** A semi-trusted authority responsible for receiving Task Requests and routing them to Solver/Verifier Nodes for execution and verification.

**Solver/Verifier Nodes:** Entities responsible for executing and verifying Task Solutions.

**Executable Instance:** The combination of a Task Module, and the required input parameters.

**Execution IDs:** Unique identifiers generated by the Dispatch Service when a request for execution is received from the Task Giver.

**Task Solutions:** Results returned by Solver/Verifier Nodes to the Coordination Hub.

**Task Response:** The response provided by the Coordination Hub to the Task Giver after receiving Task Solutions.
