摘要

This paper argues that blockchain technology has transformative potential for enhancing transparency, security, and efficiency in intelligent tracking systems—especially in in-vehicle settings and pharmaceutical supply chains. It presents the Blockchain-based Intelligent Tracking Systems (B \(^2\) ITS) framework and introduces a layered Blockchain as a Service (BaaS) deployment model. Unlike prior work, the main contribution is the BaaS model’s conceptualization to improve transparency, auditability, and data integrity, without empirically validating accuracy or efficiency. While quantitative results await future research, the framework lays the groundwork for reducing fraud, enabling secure data exchange, and automating contract enforcement with smart contracts. The primary goal was to propose and formalize a conceptual framework, not to deliver empirical validation. The blockchain-based, incentive-driven network streamlines product tracking, increases trust in data transactions and contracts, and optimizes resource planning and cost reduction in the transportation industry. This study underscores the potential of blockchain technology to enhance transparency and efficiency in the tracking and management of transportation processes. The observed benefits similarly extend to product monitoring. The research aligns with and supports the objectives of SDG 9 and SDG 12.
