Blockchain Technology Employment Opportunity for Energy Management: A Critical Review
摘要
Military operations supported by networks generate, transmit, collect, and analyse mission-critical data to give commanders at all levels superior decision-making capabilities to accomplish the goals. On the battlefield, a range of heterogeneous factors, including people and equipment, produce this data. In such a setting, it is crucial to guarantee the data’s high level of integrity, secrecy, and accessibility as well as its endurance in hostile situations. This paper is a definitive discourse on the applicability of blockchain technology to achieve authenticity and traceability of data to support military activities that are dependent on networked systems to facilitate the resiliency of the networks. It addresses principles of blockchain as well as their different variations. Besides, the article applies the Network-Enabled Model in Military Operations to model the situations in which network-enabled military endeavors are executed. Three case studies that are pertinent to the current situation have been used to assess the workable framework and architecture for integrating Block-chain technology to meet security needs.
