Blockchain-empowered Data-driven Networks

The paths leading to future networks are pointing towards a data-driven paradigm better cater the explosive growth of mobile services as well increasing heterogeneity devices, many which generate and consume large volumes variety data. These also hampered by significant challenges in terms security, privacy, provisioning, network management. Blockchain, is technology for building distributed ledgers that provide an immutable log transactions recorded network, has become prominent recently underlying cryptocurrencies revolutionizing data storage processing computer systems. For (DDNs), blockchain considered promising solution enable secure storage, sharing, analytics data, privacy protection users, robust, trustworthy control, decentralized routing resource managements. However, important open issues remain be addressed before can deployed widely DDNs. In this article, we present survey on existing research works application technologies identify potential solutions applications blockchains We scenarios blockchain-empowered DDNs could improve efficiency generally effectiveness services.
