IBchain: Internet of Things and Blockchain Integration Approach for Secure Communication in Smart Cities
Open accessAbstract
Introducing IBchain, a new blockchain architecture with the Internet of Things (IoT) could be an attractive framework regarding improvements in connectivity implementation through the smart cities. Instead of meriting innovation and security, the IoT links people, sites, products and consequently, also provides opportunities. Everything that transfers information to the IoT system is integrated by advanced microchips, sensors, and actuators in actual things. The analytical ability of the IoT converts observations into actions, impacting business advancements and significant ways of activity. IoT enables connected objects to transmit information to personal blockchain systems to create tamper-resistant transaction records. The information from sensors and microchips is progressing rapidly with blockchain ledgers, making them more portable and relevant for immediate conversations. In IBchain methodology, the smart objects are permissible to connect securely with other smart objects in diverse situations. IBchain creates an innovative blockchain-based processing configuration through the IoT. The IBchain could analyze blockchain to the main expertise or supports the IoT validation and trustworthiness. It reinforces blockchain and cloud to build an empowering IoT ubiquitous situation for secure communication among the smart devices.

City resources are scheduled efficiently for the city's infrastructure using smart contracts.
“Accordingly, city resources are scheduled efficiently for the city's infrastructure [65].”
From A Survey of Video Surveillance Systems in Smart City (2023) · cites this paper as [65]
Section 4 mentions automated scheduling as a potential smart-city benefit, and Section 4.2 says blockchain may improve the efficiency of city-level asset and budget management. Neither passage says that smart contracts efficiently schedule city resources for infrastructure; Section 4.2 discusses smart contracts separately as agreements that can be concluded autonomously.

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.
