Principles, Technologies and Applications

Series: IEEE Press

Summary

Wireless Blockchain: Principles, Technologies and Applications explores foundational concepts in blockchain theory, focusing on recent advances in both theory and practical implementation. The book examines wireless blockchain networks across different topologies and communication protocols, analysing how these affect consensus performance factors such as scalability, latency, throughput, and security. It covers blockchain integration with existing systems like 5G, discusses the Byzantine Generals problem as the foundation of blockchain security, and reviews Proof-of-Work and alternative consensus mechanisms. With insights into smart contracts and their applications across sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, telecommunications, and energy, this work offers a comprehensive view for understanding and deploying wireless blockchain technology.

Description

Explore foundational concepts in blockchain theory with an emphasis on recent advances in theory and practice.

In Wireless Blockchain: Principles, Technologies and Applications, accomplished researchers and editors Bin Cao, Lei Zhang, Mugen Peng, and Muhammad Ali Imran deliver a robust and accessible exploration of recent developments in the theory and practice of blockchain technology, systems, and potential application in a variety of industrial sectors, including manufacturing, entertainment, public safety, telecommunications, public transport, healthcare, financial services, automotive, and energy utilities.

The book presents the concept of wireless blockchain networks with different network topologies and communication protocols for various commonly used blockchain applications. You’ll discover how these variations and communication networks affect blockchain consensus performance, including scalability, throughput, latency, and security levels.

You’ll learn the state-of-the-art in blockchain technology and find insights on how blockchain runs and co-works with existing systems, including 5G, and how blockchain runs as a service to support all vertical sectors efficiently and effectively. Readers will also benefit from the inclusion of:

A thorough introduction to the Byzantine Generals problem, the fundamental theory of distributed system security, and the foundation of blockchain technology
An overview of advances in blockchain systems, their history, and likely future trends
Practical discussions of Proof-of-Work systems as well as various Proof-of-“X” alternatives, including Proof-of-Stake, Proof-of-Importance, and Proof-of-Authority
A concise examination of smart contracts, including trusted transactions, smart contract functions, design processes, and related applications in 5G/B5G
A treatment of the theoretical relationship between communication networks and blockchain

Perfect for electrical engineers, industry professionals, and students and researchers in electrical engineering, computer science, and mathematics, Wireless Blockchain: Principles, Technologies and Applications will also earn a place in the libraries of communication and computer system stakeholders, regulators, legislators, and research agencies.
