Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to inform you that "DeliveryCoin: An IDS and
Blockchain-Based Delivery Framework for Drone-Delivered Services" has
been published in Computers as part of the Special Issue
Blockchain-Based Systems and is available
online:https://www.mdpi.com/2073-431X/8/3/58
Abstract: In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection system (IDS)
and Blockchain-based delivery framework, called DeliveryCoin, for
drone-delivered services. The DeliveryCoin framework consists of four
phases, including system initialization phase, creating the block,
updating the blockchain, and intrusion detection phase. To achieve
privacy-preservation, the DeliveryCoin framework employs hash functions
and short signatures without random oracles and the Strong
Diffie–Hellman (SDH) assumption in bilinear groups. To achieve consensus
inside the blockchain-based delivery platform, we introduce a UAV-aided
forwarding mechanism, named pBFTF. We also propose an IDS system in each
macro eNB (5G) for detecting self-driving network attacks as well as
false transactions between self-driving nodes. Furthermore, extensive
simulations are conducted, and results confirm the efficiency of our
proposed DeliveryCoin framework in terms of latency of blockchain
consensus and accuracy.

Dear Colleagues,
Blockchain is the key enabling technology for cryptocurrency. It was
introduced as part of the first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, which was
established during the great recession in early 2009. Blockchain is
often referred to as a distributed and secure database. In reality,
blockchain is much more than that: It consists of a mechanism that
ensures distributed consensus among independent participants operating
in an untrusted peer-to-peer network. As such, blockchain has now been
used in areas far beyond the financial sector. In addition to the
applications of blockchain, there is also intense research on the
foundation of the blockchain technology itself, such as different ways
to accomplish distributed consensus, security of blockchain, and
scalability of blockchain. This Special Issue welcomes original research
and review articles on all aspects of the blockchain technology. Topics
of interest include but are not limited to the following areas:
Consensus algorithms;
Cyberattacks on blockchains;
Economic impact on cyberattacks;
Security and trust on permissioned blockchains;
Scalability of blockchains;
Reliability analysis on blockchain-based systems;
Smart contracts;
Visualization of blockchain data;
Blockchain for banking and finance;
Blockchain for supply chain;
Blockchain for consumer products and retail;
Blockchain for governments;
Blockchain for automotive;
Blockchain for medicine and health care;
Blockchain for travel and transportation;
Blockchain for Internet of Things;
Blockchain for agriculture.
