Smart contract driven resource management for edge computing

Abstract

Edge computing has witnessed a rapid growth in the past few years as more and more and resources are getting connected to the Internet. The Internet is not gaining any benefits from the current implementation of ad hoc and infrequent edge resources. Transparency and trust need to be introduced while distributing the economic benefits equally to both the edge resource provider and edge resource consumer. By completely decentralising the edge resource marketplace these edge resources can be made available to the public in the form of cloud resource. The current project focuses on Blockchain-based Smart contract-driven resource management for Edge Computing.
