Intelligent Traceable Cargo System in High-mobility and Connectionless Environment

2021 
The Internet of Things (IoT) concept is considered as an added-value to various application domains. Supply chain and cargo tracking are a few to name. However, the security of the IoT transactions and integrated devices remains one of the key challenges to the IoT application’s success. Recently, Blockchain technology and its consensus protocols were promoted as a solution to many information security problems. This paper discusses the advantages of integrating Blockchain technology into IoT platform to improve security since it provides a distributed transaction ledger that cannot be tampered with or controlled by a single entity. The objective of this paper is twofold, first providing an overview of existing literature on the topic of integrating Blockchain and IoT platforms in a connection-less environment; Second, presenting the proposed traceable cargo system based on Blockchain and IoT.
