Service provisioning is of paramount importance as we are now heading for a world of integrated services giving rise to the next generation of service ecosystems. The huge number of service offerings that will be available for customers in future scenarios require a novel approach to service registry and discovery that lets customers choose those offerings that best match their preferences. One way to achieve this is to introduce the provider's reputation, i.e., a quality indicator of the provisioned service, as an additional search criterion. Now, with blockchain technology in our hands, automated regulation of service-level agreements (SLAs) that capture the mutual agreements between all involved parties has regained momentum. In this article, we report our full-fledged work on the conception, design, and construction of a platform for SLA-minded service provisioning called PenChain. With our work, we demonstrate that penalty-aware SLAs of general services -if represented in a machine-readable logic and assisted by distributed ledger technology -are programmatically enforceable. We devise algorithms for ranking services in a search result taking into account the digitized values of the SLAs. We offer scenario-based evaluation of PenChain in the field of precision agriculture and the domain of automotive manufacturing. Furthermore, we examine the scalability and the data security of PenChain for precision agriculture.

The process of modern urbanization necessitates significant advancements in social, environmental, and economic aspects to enhance the overall quality of life in cities. This evolution has given rise to the concept of "Smart Cities." The incorporation of cutting-edge technologies such as blockchain, the Internet of Things (IoT), and other innovative communication systems has accelerated the progress towards the establishment of the sixth-generation communication intelligence, commonly known as 6G.Connected to the blockchain in smart cities is a crucial key, and researchers conducted an in-depth analysis of prior research to elucidate the pivotal contributions, ensuring a clear understanding of the state-of-the-art in sixth generation blockchain for smart cities. This study aims to pave the way for future research by examining key technologies, scenarios, challenges, and associated issues. Exploring the obstacles in deployment that require resolution before the implementation of block intelligence in 6G networks, this study aims to establish a foundational understanding for forthcoming advancements in blockchain technology within this generation. The paper outlines prospective research areas critical for the evolution of blockchain in the 6G era. Additionally, it addresses the challenges associated with integrating blockchain amidst the advancements in computing and mobile communication technologies, offering insights into the complexities that need to be navigated for a successful efficiency.
