Blockchains and smart contracts for the Network- Centric Warfare Proceedings Article Filho, Silvio Roberto Assunção Oliveira; Sá, Fernando Rodrigues Resumo | Links | BibTeX | Tags: blockchain, distributed processing, network-centric warfare @inproceedings{Silvio2018blockchainb, In the age of information, Network-Centric Warfare (NCW), a theory of war, is a concept of operations based on the sharing of information on the Battlefield. Blockchain, a recently proposed data structure and decentralized network has a variety of applications in warfare theory. Blockchain technology can improve the availability and integrity of data with its concept of work, a chain of blocks, that stores information which cannot be changed or erased. Bitcoin was the first and it is the most known blockchain and cryptocurrency, proposed by Sakamoto, in 2008, and has proven that it possesses the capability to become a disruptive technology. In a private network, blockchain has strong security and in a public, it has an accessibility as a detached feature. Speed, costs and censorship are just some of the important aspects between licensed and public systems. We present the main features of this new technology and its defense applications in NCW, as well as its limitations. We present possibilities of blockchain application based on his features found in literature and suggest application, thus surmising that blockchain has a variety of possibilities in logistics, communication and in the military industries. |
