Blockchain Based Data Integrity Service Framework for IoT Data
Abstract
It is a challenge to ensure data integrity for cloud-based Internet of Things (IoT) applications because of the inherently dynamic nature of IoT data. The available frameworks of data integrity verification with public auditability cannot avoid the Third Party Auditors (TPAs). However, in a dynamic environment, such as the IoT, the reliability of the TPA-based frameworks is far from being satisfactory. In this paper, we propose a blockchain-based framework for Data Integrity Service. Under such framework, a more reliable data integrity verification can be provided for both the Data Owners and the Data Consumers, without relying on any Third Party Auditor (TPA). In this paper, the relevant protocols and a subsequent prototype system, which is implemented to evaluate the feasibility of our proposals, are presented. The performance evaluation of the implemented prototype system is conducted, and the test results are discussed. The work lays a foundation for our future work on dynamic data integrity verification in a fully decentralized environment.

Energy efficient hashing algorithms can help extend the battery life of IIoT devices; although SHA-256 is probably the most popular hash algorithm due to Bitcoin, recent alternatives like Scrypt or X11 are faster, so they may reduce mining energy consumption.
“It is also worth mentioning that energy efficient hashing algorithms can help to extend the battery life of IIoT devices: although SHA-256 is probably the most popular hash algorithm due to Bitcoin, recent alternatives like Scrypt [77] or X11 [78] are faster, so they may reduce mining energy consumption.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
