摘要

物联网已发展十多年，技术进步使其应用更加广泛，但随着连接设备增多，引发的担忧及带来的风险也在显著增加。2013年，一种新的基于加密技术的基础设施--区块链--应运而生，通过去中心化，基于区块链的物联网有可能取代现有基于云的物联网。本文对当前物联网基础设施面临的挑战进行分类，并对采用区块链作为基础设施后物联网可能遇到的问题作文献调查，比较了两种体系结构的优缺点。简要介绍了正在进行的有关区块链的关键研究，这些研究将对克服区块链在物联网应用中遇到的挑战产生显著影响。最后，考虑到这两种体系各自面临的挑战和问题以及最新研究进展，提出一种高水平的混合方案，该方案综合利用云、边缘/雾计算和区块链，以避免这两种体系的局限性。

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) has been evolving for more than a decade. Technological advancements have increased its popularity

but concerns and risks related to IoT are growing considerably along with the increased number of connected devices. In 2013

a new cryptography-based infrastructure called blockchain emerged with the potential to replace the existing cloud-based infrastructure of IoT through decentralization. In this article

we provide a taxonomy of the challenges in the current IoT infrastructure

and a literature survey with a taxonomy of the issues to expect in the future of the IoT after adopting blockchain as an infrastructure. The two architectures are compared based on their strengths and weaknesses. Then a brief survey of ongoing key research activities in blockchain is presented

which will have considerable impact on overcoming the challenges encountered in the applicability of blockchain in IoT. Finally

considering the challenges and issues in both infrastructures and the latest research activities

we propose a high-level hybrid IoT approach that uses the cloud

edge/fog

and blockchain together to avoid the limitations of each infrastructure.
