【Abstract】In the coming years, massive amounts of data are likely to be traded in vehicle-to-grid (V2G) networks to enhance traffic efficiency and safety through vehicular communications. However, several challenges need to be addressed before realizing the full potential of V2G networks. These challenges include the privacy-preservation of users, secure caching, scalability in deep environments, unreliability in high mobility events, and low efficiency in large networks. To overcome these challenges in V2G networks, named data networking (NDN) offers a good solution. It provides a new future Internet architecture: "named content-based" rather than "host addresses." The main focus of NDN in V2G networks is to provide data availability, network performance, data retrieval, and data distribution. However, the presence of NDN in V2G networks introduces several issues like privacy and trust among vehicular nodes. Hence, this article proposes a system model based on blockchain technology in NDN-enabled V2G networks. This model provides secure and fast named content searching and enhances the trust among vehicular nodes. The simulation results show that the block propagation latency of NDN-based blockchain is less than the IP-based blockchain systems. In addition, the performance of the proposed scheme outperforms an existing scheme. The reason is to use the proof-of-authority consensus mechanism compared to proof of work, which uses high mining computation power. Furthermore, the proposed scheme increases the trust and transparency in NDN-enabled V2G networks.

【Abstract】Blockchain technology (BT) is widely implemented in businesses, yet its adoption within distinct channel leaderships in a supply chain has not been well studied. Following real-world practices, we build analytical models to study two strategies in which the manufacturer leads BT adoption (MLB) and the retailer leads BT adoption (RLB). Our results show that BT adoption does not necessarily create extra supply chain profits. Higher profits can be obtained when consumers show a strong preference for traceability or when the leader shares sufficient costs otherwise. Raising leaders' cost-sharing proportions does not necessarily benefit followers, and the cost burden may motivate leaders to reduce the traceability level, thereby decreasing overall benefits. Interestingly, cost-sharing is not a "zero-sum" game for supply chain members, and sharing more costs as followers may help create mutual benefits. A comparison of the strategies of MLB and RLB reveals that the product price, traceability level, and carbon emissions in MLB can either be higher or lower than those in RLB. From an environmental perspective, we show that the carbon tax has a nonmonotonic effect on product retail prices. For the supply chain, it is possible to increase profits but simultaneously reduce emissions in each strategy, and a superior strategy that improves both economic and environmental performance exists. By modelling the regulator's participation in BT adoption, we further show that emission taxes and BT subsidies are not concomitant, and surprisingly, we find that the emission tax may either increase or decrease with product emission intensity. Moreover, our extension shows that regular operational costs for BT may impact the economic performance of BT adoption but other key findings remain robust.

【Abstract】Natural or man-made disasters pose significant challenges for delivering critical relief to affected populations due to disruptions in critical infrastructures and logistics networks. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)-aided disaster relief networks (UDRNs) leverage UAVs to assist existing ground relief networks by swiftly assessing affected areas, and timely delivering lifesaving supplies. To meet the growing demands for collaborative, trust-free, and transparent UDRN services, blockchain-based UDRNs emerge as a promising approach through immutable ledgers and distributed smart contracts. However, several efficiency and security challenges hinder the deployment of blockchain-based UDRNs, including the lack of cooperation between smart contracts, lack of dynamic audit for smart contract vulnerabilities, and low forensics robustness against transaction malleability attacks. Toward efficient and secure blockchain- based UDRNs, this article presents potential solutions: a series of collaborative smart contracts for coordinated relief management; a dynamic contract audit mechanism to prevent known/unknown contract vulnerabilities; and a robust transaction forensics strategy with on/off-chain cooperation to resist transaction malleability attacks. Our prototype implementation and experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our approach. Lastly, we outline key open research issues crucial to advancing this emerging field.

【Abstract】This paper investigates the motivations behind Central Banks' issuance of digital currencies (CBDC) and the associated risks, including potential misuse and distrust from international actors. Non-issuance of CBDC could hinder financial innovation, while issuance might introduce risks related to cybercriminality and misuse by rogue nations. This study balances these motives by assessing whether sentiment provides significant insights for policymakers and regulators. Utilising social media data, we analyse the impact of CBDC-related central bank releases, severe negative events, and contagion effects from traditional financial markets on CBDC sentiment. Our findings reveal that central bank announcements generally boost positive sentiment towards CBDCs through the provision of reassurance, whereas major geopolitical events trigger significant fluctuations in sentiment. The research highlights the critical role of sentiment analysis in understanding external influences on the development and implementation of CBDCs.

【Abstract】The recent prevalence of microservice-based applications that leverage the capabilities offered by cloud and edge computing, has given rise to highly complex services which create new challenges for efficient monitoring and orchestration. In today's cloud environments, service monitoring is typically premised on technical Quality of Service (QoS) performance metrics, rather than on Quality of Experience (QoE) as perceived by users. In this paper, we posit that user feedback should also play a significant role in cloud service monitoring. However, we explicitly set a prerequisite: the trustworthiness of user feedback should not be considered guaranteed. Therefore, we have developed Feed4Cloud, the first system to complement QoS monitoring with exclusively trustworthy user feedback for QoE-aware cloud service management. The novelty of our solution lies in two key aspects: First, the establishment of an intermediate verification layer that validates user feedback before it is injected into the orchestration engine. The second key aspect is the use of Blockchain in this layer, as a means to record user feedback in a decentralized and secure way, aiming to achieve non-repudiation and ensure its integrity. In this paper, we present the architectural details of the Feed4Cloud prototype, while placing a particular focus on aspects regarding trustworthy evaluation of service performance. Furthermore, we provide evaluation results that validate the effectiveness of the introduced verification layer and demonstrate that QoE-based service evaluation can consistently be conducted in a trustworthy manner across a wide range of system conditions and user behaviors.

【Abstract】The hospitality industry generates significant food waste, leading to adverse environmental and economic impacts, social and ethical concerns, legal and regulatory issues, and operational challenges. The lack of traceability and trust among stakeholders in the hospitality industry exacerbates the expensive and difficult nature of food waste management. This work proposes a blockchain-based solution that aims to minimize food waste generated in hospitality outlets, thereby fostering a sustainable food ecosystem. Within this context, the term 'sustainable food ecosystem' refers to the interconnected network of stakeholders involved in the responsible management of food resources within the hospitality industry. In this context, we categorize these stakeholders under the umbrella of 'food resource management entities,' encompassing both food donation organizations and recycling companies, recognizing their distinct roles in the effective management of surplus food resources. With our proposed solution, businesses can track and verify the origin, movement, and disposal of food items in real-time, facilitating streamlined inventory planning, waste reduction, and heightened operational efficiency. Additionally, the proposed system ensures transparency and accountability, guaranteeing the proper and efficient disposal of food waste. Using a permissioned Ethereum network, our solution establishes seamless connectivity between food and beverage outlets and various food resource management entities. We present a generalized system for secure information sharing, integrating advanced algorithms tailored to capture and enhance trust among participating stakeholders. Furthermore, our thorough security analysis underscores the robustness of our proposed solution, effectively addressing various security vulnerabilities. Lastly, the proposed blockchain-based solution is commercially viable, enabling the hospitality industry to operate with enhanced efficiency while providing improved information connectivity for various stakeholders in the food supply chain.

区块链应用-虚拟经济-NFT

【Abstract】This study investigates how NFT design features affect project performance. From the consumption perspective, NFT design features are divided into competency-related (image complexity, consistency) and investment-related (initial price, royalty). Using transaction data of 3297 NFT projects, we find that image complexity has an inverted U-shaped effect on long-term performance, while consistency boosts both short-term and long-term performance by formulating brand symbolism. Royalty as investment cost negatively affects short-term performance, while royalty and initial price exhibit inverted U-shaped impacts on long-term performance due to their mixed roles of costs and quality signals. Market uncertainty amplifies the impacts of complexity and royalties while diminishing the initial price impact in the long term. Findings support NFT project design, enhancing Web3 consumer behavior understandings.

区块链应用-实体经济-电力领域

【Abstract】The global energy sector is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by the emergence of 'prosumers'- individuals who generate and consume energy. This shift is redefining traditional roles and is propelled by a growing demand for sustainable and renewable energy. Prosumers utilize decentralized energy sources, such as solar panels and wind turbines, enhancing energy independence by producing their own energy and selling any surplus back to the grid. However, this decentralized landscape presents challenges in accurately tracking carbon emissions and establishing equitable pricing mechanisms. In response to these challenges, we propose an innovative blockchain-based peer-to-peer (P2P) trading platform for carbon allowances. This novel approach gives prosumers a decisive influence over energy pricing, ensuring a more equitable distribution of energy resources. The blockchain framework benefits from decentralization, promoting transparency, security, and an immutable record of energy transactions and carbon emissions. To evaluate the platform's effectiveness, we will initiate a real-world pilot project within the Education City Community Housing (ECCH) to gather empirical data over one year. The pilot will involve various participants-including prosumers and traditional consumers-and will meticulously monitor energy production, consumption, and trading activities. By comparing this decentralized system with traditional energy models, we aim to assess its impact on carbon emissions, user satisfaction, and overall economic viability, paving the way for a sustainable energy future.

区块链技术-核心技术-共识机制

【Abstract】The wireless blockchain network (WBN) concept, born from the blockchain deployed in wireless networks, has appealed to many network scenarios. Blockchain consensus mechanisms (CMs) are key to enabling nodes in a wireless network to achieve consistency without any trusted entity. However, consensus reliability will be seriously affected by the instability of communication links in wireless networks. Meanwhile, it is difficult for nodes in wireless scenarios to obtain a timely energy supply. Energy-intensive blockchain functions can quickly drain the power of nodes, thus degrading consensus performance. Fortunately, a symbiotic radio (SR) system enabled by cognitive backscatter communications can solve the above problems. In SR, the secondary transmitter (STx) transmits messages over the radio frequency (RF) signal emitted from a primary transmitter (PTx) with extremely low energy consumption, and the STx can provide multipath gain to the PTx in return. Such an approach is useful for almost all vote-based CMs, such as the Practical Byzantine Fault-tolerant (PBFT)-like and the RAFT-like CMs. This paper proposes symbiotic blockchain consensus (SBC) by transforming 6 PBFT-like and 4 RAFT-like state-of-the-art (SOTA) CMs to demonstrate universality. These new CMs will benefit from mutualistic transmission relationships in SR, making full use of the limited spectrum resources in WBN. Simulation results show that SBC can increase the consensus success rate of PBFT-like and RAFT-like by 54.1% and 5.8%, respectively, and reduce energy consumption by 9.2% and 23.7%, respectively.

区块链技术-核心技术-共识机制

【Abstract】With the increasing demand for blockchain technology in various industry sectors, there has been a growing interest in the Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) consensus that is the backbone of most of these blockchains. However, many state-of-the-art algorithms that require reliable connections can only offer limited throughput in wide-area networks (WANs), where participants are connected over long distances and may experience unpredictable network failures. The partially-connected BFTs are designed for unreliable and highly dynamic networks yet impose exponential communication complexity. This paper proposes Stable Byzantine Fault Tolerance (SBFT), a BFT communication abstraction that can sustain high throughput and low latency in WAN. SBFT separates the leader from consensus in pipelined BFT consensus and uses an adaptive consensus mechanism to resist dynamic faulty links, maintaining consensus efficiency when network connectivity is high while adapting to dynamic networks with low connectivity. We implemented a prototype of SBFT and tested it on the WAN. The results demonstrate that SBFT has a throughput similar to HotStuff in a fault-free environment but can reduce about 80% of consensus latency. Besides, SBFT retains 40% of the original throughput when the link failure probability is 0.4, while the baseline HotStuff retains less than 40% when the link failure probability is only 0.1.

【Abstract】The rapid growth of the Internet of Things and the massive growth of sensitive data created by user equipment have headed to resilient demand for additional security and privacy measures. The data produced by the IoT devices are often sensitive & personal, which raises new concerns about security measurement. The development & adoption of IoT and the security aspects of the IoT are not going at the same pace. The future IoT architecture must emphasize enough security concerns and provides adequate measures to prevent devices/data from being accessed by unauthorized means. This work encompasses a comprehensive analysis of frameworks & models of access control for the IoT environment. In this review paper, the analysis of access control solutions is done in four parts: the first part compares various existing review articles with our work, the second part encompasses architecture-based access control mechanisms, the third part comprises access control models, and the fourth part contains few emergent solutions including blockchain-based solutions. Subsequently, prevalent solutions are mapped to vital requirements of the IoT environment. Eventually, security obligations for the IoT environment, probable challenges, and forthcoming research directions are highlighted. This research explores the growing literature on access control for IoT, emphasizing its security requirements.

【Abstract】This study examines the investment strategies of Bitcoin along with equity, bonds, precious metals and the exchange rate volatility in the context of Russia-Ukraine conflict. The study analyzes daily data from January 1, 2018, to May 30, 2023, with unveiling a saga of financial resilience and strategic foresight. Against the backdrop of geopolitical upheaval, this study employs three sophisticated GARCH estimation models, artfully deciphering the nuanced hedging, diversification, and safe haven attributes of Bitcoin along with conventional financial assets within the Russian financial milieu. Within this intricate tapestry, the GJR-GARCH model emerges as a virtuoso, offering unparalleled precision in forecasting volatility and unraveling correlations among the underlined assets. Bitcoin's prowess as a hedge comes to the forefront, bestowing investors with the strategic advantage of risk diversification, while government bonds observed least attractive assets during the crisis period. Delving deeper into risk assessment, this research harnesses the potent tools of Value at Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR). These estimations paint a vivid portrait of potential portfolio losses during times of crisis, providing a compass for prudent financial decision-making. In the crucible of crisis, Bitcoin emerges as a beacon of investment, witnessing a remarkable surge in adoption amidst heightened volatility and uncertainty. A symphony of market forces unfolds, where negative news resonates with greater intensity than its positive counterpart, underscoring the imperative of judicious asset allocation for effective risk mitigation. This study not only unfurls a compelling narrative for astute investors but also serves as a compass for policymakers navigating the treacherous waters of high market volatility and geopolitical uncertainties.
