Summary

In an increasingly connected world, the role of wireless computing power networks (WCPN) is becoming ever more critical, and it is fundamental to the Internet of Things (IoT), smart cities, and ubiquitous computing. Obviously, WCPN demands robust security protocols and trust mechanisms to ensure the reliability and integrity of transmitted data. The blockchain technology offers a groundbreaking approach to guarantee the trustworthiness and security of these networks. This special issue is dedicated to the exploration of blockchain's potential in creating decentralized, transparent, and tamper-resistant systems that can govern WCPN with unparalleled efficiency.

 

This special issue invites pioneering research focusing on how to implement blockchain to enable secure wireless communication, safeguard against cyber threats, and provide a trustworthy computing power sharing mechanism. Expected contributions may involve theoretical models, algorithmic innovations, empirical studies, and real-world applications that demonstrate how blockchain can enhance the resilience and efficiency of WCPN. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: decentralized network management, consensus algorithms for resource allocation, cryptographic protocols for enhanced security, and blockchain-based solutions for privacy preservation in WCPN.

 

This issue seeks to offer comprehensive insights into the design, analysis, and implementation of blockchain-assisted WCPN that are robust against vulnerabilities and capable of supporting the ever-growing demand for wireless services.

    Abstract Currently, there is a growing trend among users to store their data in the cloud. However, the cloud is vulnerable to persistent data corruption risks arising from equipment failures and hacker attacks. Additionally, when users perform file operations, the semantic integrity of the data can be compromised. Ensuring both data integrity and semantic correctness has become a critical issue that requires attention. We introduce a pioneering solution called Sec-Auditor, the first of its kind with the ability to verify data integrity and semantic correctness simultaneously, while maintaining a constant communication cost independent of the audited… More >

    Abstract As an open network architecture, Wireless Computing Power Networks (WCPN) pose new challenges for achieving efficient and secure resource management in networks, because of issues such as insecure communication channels and untrusted device terminals. Blockchain, as a shared, immutable distributed ledger, provides a secure resource management solution for WCPN. However, integrating blockchain into WCPN faces challenges like device heterogeneity, monitoring communication states, and dynamic network nature. Whereas Digital Twins (DT) can accurately maintain digital models of physical entities through real-time data updates and self-learning, enabling continuous optimization of WCPN, improving synchronization performance, ensuring real-time accuracy, More >
