    Scalable Blockchain Technology for Tracking the Provenance of the Agri-Food

    B. Subashini*, D. Hemavathi

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.75, No.2, pp. 3339-3358, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.035074

    Abstract Due to an increase in agricultural mislabeling and carelesshandling of non-perishable foods in recent years, consumers have been calling for the food sector to be more transparent. Due to information dispersion between divisions and the propensity to record inaccurate data, current traceability solutions typically fail to provide reliable farm-to-fork histories ofproducts. The three most enticing characteristics of blockchain technology areopenness, integrity, and traceability, which make it a potentially crucial tool for guaranteeing the integrity and correctness of data. In this paper, we suggest a permissioned blockchain system run by organizations, such as regulatory bodies, to promote the origin-tracking of shelf-stable… More >

    An Immutable Framework for Smart Healthcare Using Blockchain Technology

    Faneela1, Muazzam A. Khan1, Suliman A. Alsuhibany2,*, Walid El-Shafai3,4, Mujeeb Ur Rehman5, Jawad Ahmad6

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.46, No.1, pp. 165-179, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.035066

    Abstract The advancements in sensing technologies, information processing, and communication schemes have revolutionized the healthcare sector. Electronic Healthcare Records (EHR) facilitate the patients, doctors, hospitals, and other stakeholders to maintain valuable data and medical records. The traditional EHRs are based on cloud-based architectures and are susceptible to multiple cyberattacks. A single attempt of a successful Denial of Service (DoS) attack can compromise the complete healthcare system. This article introduces a secure and immutable blockchain-based framework for the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) to address the stated challenges. The proposed architecture is on the idea of a lightweight private blockchain-based network that… More >

    Multi-Source Data Privacy Protection Method Based on Homomorphic Encryption and Blockchain

    Ze Xu, Sanxing Cao*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.136, No.1, pp. 861-881, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.025159

    Abstract Multi-Source data plays an important role in the evolution of media convergence. Its fusion processing enables the further mining of data and utilization of data value and broadens the path for the sharing and dissemination of media data. However, it also faces serious problems in terms of protecting user and data privacy. Many privacy protection methods have been proposed to solve the problem of privacy leakage during the process of data sharing, but they suffer from two flaws: 1) the lack of algorithmic frameworks for specific scenarios such as dynamic datasets in the media domain; 2) the inability to solve… More > Graphic Abstract
