Abstract

Fog computing is a new computing paradigm for meeting ubiquitous massive access and latency-critical applications by moving the processing capability closer to end users. The geographical distribution/floating features with potential autonomy requirements introduce new challenges to the traditional methodology of network access control. In this project, a blockchain-enabled fog resource access and the granting solution is proposed to tackle the unique requirements brought by fog computing. The smart contractual concept is introduced to enable dynamic, and automatic credential generation and delivery for an independent offer of fog resources. Negotiated transaction mechanism supports the fog resource provider to dynamically publish an offer and facilitates the choice of the preferred resource by the end-user. There is no central authority needed to verify your identity, and relieve the processing pressure brought by massive access and singlepoint failure. Our solution can be extended and used in multi-access and especially multi-carrier scenarios in which centralized authorities are absent.
