DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK FOR TRUSTED IOT

Blockchain is one of the emerging technologies which builds trust and transparency to an industry where transactional progressions plays a major role. In this digital transformation era of business, Internet of Things (IoT) is an additional trending technology that denotes to the billions of physical devices around the world that are associated to the internet, assembling and distribution of data. In this paper we project our work by using Hyperledger Fabric, an open source blockchain framework, and the WatsonTM IoT platform through Node-RED to handling the assortment of data on a distributed network unchangeably. The aim of this investigation goal is to design a proof of concept for equally Blockchain and IoT. Rather than developing an application with complete abilities, our resolution will be much more reasonable and informative. This paper can be stretched and improved according to new-fangled business representations by adding new organizations to the distributed network and emerging innovative smart agreements depending on the logic. In this paper, we intend to build a Hyperledger Fabric network, design APIs with the Hyperledger Fabric SDKs to interact with the network, collect information or data from the sensor (such as temperature), demonstration of data on the dashboard with Node-RED, and a UI where we can see the sensor data history.
