“…They can also make these processes more secure, transparent, and efficient. These findings are aligned with those of other studies conducted in the past (Aydar et al, 2019; Cabello et al, 2017; Li et al, 2018; Ma et al, 2018; Neyer and Geva, 2017; Novotny et al, 2018; Oktian et al, 2019; Vu et al, 2019). The identified usage of BC technology sheds light on the opportunities regarding this technology in the current era.…”

The Library and Information Science (LIS) community has started discussing some possible uses of Blockchain (BC) technologies in solving library-related problems and increasing the overall efficiency of libraries. This study aimed to systematically collect and review the relevant literature to comprehend the scope of BC for libraries, its benefits, as well as the challenges, and implications related to its use. The authors explored six reputed databases (Web of Science, Scopus, LISTA (Library, Information Science and Technology Abstracts), LISA (Library and Information Science Abstracts), IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), and Google Scholar) to conduct this review. This study was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. After the final data extraction, 21 documents were considered eligible for the systematic review. A systematic review of the selected works indicated that the usage of BC in libraries ranged from record-keeping to processing payments and ensuring security and transparency. Some of the opportunities that can be hunted from BC were the elimination of corruption, enhanced security, improved efficiency of services, and better time management. Literature also indicated that a lack of awareness of technology, unskilled staff, and financial constraints could impede the adoption of BC by libraries. It is hoped that this study would provide a holistic overview of BC technologies for libraries, thus improving the effectiveness of the decision-makers. This study is first that collected (systematically) and reviewed the literature on BC usage in libraries. The review will help educational institutions and library professionals understand the usage, challenges, and benefits of BC for libraries.

“…Xu et al [6] propose a layered model based on Smart Contracts to ensure the access to the Open banking paradigm, where the smart contract manages the transaction but does not perform it. In cloud systems, Oktian et al [7] describe a system where users can request information from the cloud. For that research, smart contracts are used to register an account into the cloud by the user before starting any transaction.…”

Over the past few years, we have seen the emergence of a wide range of banking architectures, technologies, and applications made possible by the significant improvements in hardware, software, and networking technologies. Nowadays, innovative solutions are being developed by banks to leverage the benefits of blockchain, to improve their business agility and performance, and to make their business operations more efficient and secure. However, there are still cases where regular access to Internet is impossible or unreliable due to saturated networks or harsh environments, hence limiting the deployment of typical blockchain based solutions. In this context, an approach using a new connectivity technology is needed in order to increase mobile Internet services for any device to reach nearly 95% of the world population, instantly, simply by drawing on existing mobile phone networks, with no additional infrastructure development. We aim to give the user full bank access from their device, even if the device is not a smart one, using ordinary mobile phone networks. However, providing efficient and secure communications over lossy and low bandwidth networks remains a challenge. The main objective of this paper will be to design an end-to-end and low overhead secure solution for the communications between mobile devices and their corresponding remote application servers that using blockchain via ordinary mobile networks.

“…Many have proposed SC-based schemes for trading and sharing IoT data over a blockchain network, with models differing from our proposal totally or partially. In BlockSubPay [17], Oktian et al proposed a payment protocol using the Ethereum blockchain network. In their proposal, the network will record subscriptions related to each user, which could be fixed payment or pay-as-yougo subscriptions.…”

“…The client has to manage the access tokens they might have if subscribed to several data providers. In Saranyu [18], Nayak et al proposed a cloud tenant and service management system similar to [17], but they used Quorum as the platform, a permissioned network to implement SCs, and have not provided enough details about charging tenants. Al-Zahrani [19] also proposed a subscription-based model for trading cloud services data.…”
