Blockchain-Enabled Fog and Edge Computing: Concepts, Architectures and Applications: Concepts, Architectures and Applications
暫譯: 區塊鏈驅動的霧計算與邊緣計算：概念、架構與應用

這本綜合性的書籍揭示了區塊鏈與霧計算/邊緣計算之間的工作關係。書中的內容設計使讀者不僅能理解區塊鏈和霧計算/邊緣計算，還能理解它們的共存及其協作能力，以解決各種多樣化的問題。

書的第一部分涵蓋了區塊鏈驅動的霧計算和邊緣計算的基本概念及應用，包括：物聯網、觸覺互聯網、智慧城市，以及在車聯網中的電子罰單（E-challan）。書的第二部分則探討了區塊鏈驅動的霧計算和邊緣計算的安全性和隱私相關問題，包括基於硬體原語的物理不可複製函數（Physical Unclonable Functions）、安全管理系統、在區塊鏈存在下的邊緣和雲的安全性、使用區塊鏈的霧計算安全存儲，以及在區塊鏈上基於邊緣的智慧電網使用差分隱私。

本書是為希望在區塊鏈和霧計算/邊緣計算領域工作的學生、計算機科學家、研究人員和開發者而寫的。本書的一個獨特特點是強調與區塊鏈驅動的霧計算和邊緣計算範式相關的問題、挑戰和未來研究方向。我們希望讀者能將本書視為區塊鏈和霧計算/邊緣計算領域的寶貴補充。
