ArchContract: using smart contracts for disposition
Danielle Alves Batista, Tim Weingaertner · 2019
Disposition is one of the consequences of the appraisal archival function. Although appraisal writ large is a function that no technology could execute, disposition has been already supported by different tools. In this paper, we propose a blockchain-based application for disposition, a smart contract called ArchContract, using two different repositories. We discuss appraisal and disposition on blockchain systems, the use of smart contracts as a disposition tool and present the model of ArchContract. We conclude that blockchain and smart contracts have the potential to support some of the records management functions such as disposition.
