Blockchain technology has many uses in the world of finance, insurance, supply chain, or information security. Scientists and IT leaders are continually investigating new ways to apply blockchain technology. One of the critical challenges the authors address is the connection with existing enterprise infrastructure. Blockchain will play a critical role in IoT and cyber-physical system implementations.
The book is an excellent discussion of blockchain tools, consensus algorithms, and platforms that support interoperability. The chapter on interoperability is a unique study of communication mechanisms. Decentralized algorithms pose unique challenges for handling communication across multiple chains with transparency and data integrity. There are also discussions on solutions for the scalability of extensive data set handling during messaging across chains with large numbers of network nodes. The book includes valuable implementation guides for platforms like Hyperledger Fabric or Multichain.
The authors present an in-depth discussion on cryptoasset security and legal challenges around inheritances and wills.
Blockchain Technology and Applications is an excellent asset for readers at all levels interested in this technology.
