Leader Election in Internet of Things Using Blockchain: Issues and Challenges
Khushboo Kumari, Mahendra Kumar Murmu · 2023
Now days, Internet of Things (IoTs) is the most promising area of research, for the problems, in order to create distributed and innovative solutions. An IoT connects large amount of heterogeneous devices in the network and manages. During the process, intruder may affect the data at any stage. Therefore, elegancy on data processing is the obvious requirements which can leads to timely and fair decision. In this direction, the present paper proposes the scope of leader election requirements for IoT networks. The leader election is a method to identify a privilege node from the connected components which can handle the coordination and control the systems. Our aim is to look into the problem using blockchain technology. The blockchain technology may help to select safe and secure leader for IoT. The research includes various design constraints of the leader election in IoT using blockchain technology. Also, our works cover mapping of blockchain with IoT environment and discusses related issues and challenges.
