Abstract

Utilization of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) provides increasing demands on decreasing traffic congestions, transportation safety, and environmental problems as well as increasing transportation capacity. Over the past few years, one of the most disruptive and transformational technologies, blockchain technology, has emerged. As a result of offering more security, privacy, traceability, transparency, and decentralized authority, the utilization of blockchain technology in ITS have increased drastically. Despite this increase, there is a lack of a good understanding of what are the Critical Success Factors (CSF) to support IT providers for designing their products properly, and to provide industry leaders to focus on the main drivers of their outstanding projects. This study aims to explore and analyze CSFs that can facilitate the success of blockchain-based ITS, which has so far been neglected despite its remarkable relevance. In doing so, eleven primary studies, identified as a result of conducting a systematic literature review (SLR), were taken as a baseline to develop the model of CSFs. Additionally, since the number of existing studies related to CSFs for blockchain and ITS are limited, an expert panel was formed to evaluate and contribute to the model. The developed model of CSF for blockchain-based ITS, having a comprehensive approach, consists of 29 CSFs defined under five main contexts, namely technical, management, governance, quality of service, and quality of life.

Highlights

  • The population living in cities is increasing day by day

  • Eleven primary studies, identified as a result of conducting a systematic literature review (SLR), were taken as a baseline to develop the model of Critical Success Factors (CSF)

  • After removing the duplicates and exclusion of series and reviews, a total of 21 studies remained. After evaluating these studies, according to their abstracts, titles, and keywords, a total of nine related studies remained. After reading these nine studies fully, it was realized that all of them did contribute to defining the CSFs for blockchain, and the nine studies were labeled as primary studies

Summary

Introduction

The population living in cities is increasing day by day. the increasing number of vehicles causes traffic congestion problem in cities. ITS use analyzed data collected from various sources, such as sensors, mobile cellular networks, meteorological sensors, seismic sensors, cameras, GPS based receivers, microwave detectors, inductive loop detectors. They consist of six fundamental components as advanced transportation management systems, advanced traveler information systems, advanced vehicle control systems, business vehicle management, advanced public transportation systems, advanced urban transportation systems [9]. Blockchain has a revolutionary effect on the finance sector with cryptocurrency and decentralized authority and on other sectors as manufacturing, healthcare, or supply chain management, owing to new ways of more secure and transparent transactions [5, 13,14,15]. The benefits of blockchain technology can be described as distributed consensus, anonymity [12], transparency, accountability, interoperability, financial effectiveness, collaboration, agility [5], privacy, security, and scalability [15]
