In recent years, Blockchain technology has earned significant consideration from the smart cities developer community due to its ability to provide security, privacy, and authentication. Reconfiguration is also a challenge in IoT-based smart cities architecture, where sensor nodes need to change their behavior by the undefined conditions. In this paper, we develop a solution by integrating Blockchain into smart cities architecture to ensure security and privacy in the reconfiguring process. After deploying IoTex – an private Blockchain framework into smart cities architecture, we design a variety of smart contracts to simulate a IoT reconfiguring process. Blockchain’s features are evaluated by calculating the smart contract’s cost. On the other hand, the whole system’s performance is also measured and evaluated.
