CALL FOR PAPERS
******************************************************************************************************************** 5th Workshop on Blockchain theoRy and ApplicatIoNs - BRAIN 2024 https://sites.google.com/view/brain-2024
held in conjunction with PerCom 2024 (22nd IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications)
*********** Paper Submission Deadline 17 November 2023*************
Tentative workshop date: Biarritz (France), 11th of March 2024
*********************************************************************************************************************
This workshop aims to provide a venue for researchers from both academy and industry to present and discuss important topics on blockchain technology. The workshop’s goal is to present results on both theoretical and more applicative open challenges, as well as to provide a venue to showcase the current state of existing proposals.
All workshop papers are limited to no more than 6 pages in IEEE format aligned with the IEEE-Percom main conference guidelines.
All submissions will undergo a double-blind review process. As a result, authors must make a good faith effort to anonymize their submissions.
The workshop will follow the main conference indications in being a, potentially hybrid, physical/virtual event. The boundary between the two modalities will be defined based on the pandemic conditions worldwide. Currently it is scheduled as a physical event, with a provision for remote participation.
Accepted workshop papers will be included in the IEEE Percom 2024 proceedings and will appear in the IEEE Explore Library.
Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their work to an accepted special issue of an international journal whose details will be disclosed shortly.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Blockchain Fundamentals Distributed consensus Algorithms Permissioned vs permissionless paradigms Scalability issues P2P communication protocols Inter-ledger protocols Smart contracts automatic verification layer-2 payment protocols, lightning networks legal Aspect (smart contract, utility and security tokens, ICO, ...) Blockchain for pervasive computing System engineering with IoT and blockchain Digital identity Management on blockchain Distributed supply chains Blockchain-based mobile edge computing systems Blockchain for Medicine and Healthcare Blockchain for trustworthiness in 5G and 6G Networks Blockchain for peer-to-peer energy management Blockchain-enabled distributed social platforms Blockchain-based access control Smart Contracts and dApp software engineering aspects Cryptocurrencies
