Enhancing the WoT model through blockchain infrastructure

The WoT paradigm has evolved as a novel technique for establishing trust and security in distributed systems. It is based on a network of trusted entities vouching for others’ authenticity and integrity. The WoT concept, on the other hand, poses issues in terms of scale, tamper resistance, and transparency. This section investigates how using blockchain infrastructure might overcome these issues and improve the WoT paradigm. We investigate how blockchain technology provides value to the WoT architecture and highlight its major properties. Furthermore, we present real-world use cases that show how blockchains may be used to improve trust and security within the WoT.

In this section, we will look at how blockchain technology can be integrated into the WoT architecture. We will begin by outlining the WoT paradigm, its principles, and the issues it confronts. Then, we’ll go through the foundations of blockchain...
