I think you need to clarify what you mean by offline as you don't mention that in the body of your question at all.

I think one of the scalingbitcoin.org presentation in Hong Kong touched on what you are referring to.

Also, please specify what you mean with "splitting". Is that like forking but where the splits will be remerged later? Anyway, it doesn't seem obvious from your question.

There were a few ideas on how to make the blockchain hierarchical, and also splitting it to allow for splits.

Are there any proposed/non implemented ideas that accomplish this with Bitcoin or any technology?
