Blocks' Network: Redesign Architecture Based on Blockchain Technology
Moataz Hanif, Houbing Herbert Song · 2019
The internet is a global network that uses communication protocols. It is considered the most important system reached by humanity, which no one can abandon [1]. However, this technology has become a weapon that threatens the privacy of users, especially in the client-server model, where data is stored and managed privately. Additionally, users have no power over their data that store in a private server, which means users' data may interrupt by government or might be sold via service provider for-profit purposes. Furthermore, blockchain is a technology that we can rely on to solve issues related to client-server model if appropriately used. However, blockchain technology uses consensus protocol, which is used for creating an incontrovertible system of agreement between members across a distributed network [2]. Thus, the consensus protocol is used to slow all member down from generating too fast in order to control the network creation pattern, which leads to scalability and latency problems. This paper will present a platform that leverages modernize blockchain called Blocks' Network. The system is taking into consideration the issues related to privacy and confidentiality from the client-side model, and scalability and latency issues from the blockchain technology side. Blocks' network is a public and a permissioned network that use a multi-dimensional hash to generate multiple chains for the purpose of a systematic approach. The proposed platform is users' assembly point to create a decentralized network via P2P protocols. The system has a high data flow due to frequent use by participants (e.g., the use of the Internet). Besides, the system will store all traffic of the network overtly via Blocks' Network.
