블록체인 기술은 분산형 네트워크를 통해 정보 등을 관리하고 저장함으로써 정보의 투명성 및 신뢰성을 제공해줄 수 있는 분산 컴퓨팅 기반의 데이터 위변조 방지 기술이다. 특히 수천만개 사물 기기들이 서로 통신을 하여 서비스를 제공하는 사물인터넷(IoT) 서비스 환경에서 블록체인 기술은 중앙 집중 방식의 관리 구조를 탈피하고 보안성을 향상시킬 수 있는 인프라 기술로 주목 받고 있다. IoT 서비스에 데이터 무결성 및 디바이스 제어 등의 보안서비스를 제공하고, 분산화된 방식으로 서비스의 확장성을 높이고자 최근 글로벌 기업들은 IoT 블록체인 개발을 위한 컨소시엄을 구성하여, IoT 서비스에 활용할 수 있는 블록체인 기반 기술들을 연구하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 블록체인을 기반으로 한 IoT 연구 프로젝트들의 연구기술 동향을 분석하고, IoT 서비스에 블록체인을 적용한 사례와 응용 기술 등을 소개한다. 또한 IoT 응용 서비스에 효과적으로 적용하기 위해 기존 블록체인 기법들의 확장성 및 오버헤드 등의 문제를 개선한 Tangle 기술에 대해서 자세히 소개하고, IoT에 블록체인을 적용하기 위한 고려사항들을 논의한다.

Blockchain is designed to collect and store the data recorded on the network in one block unit, and is connected and stored back and forth, and its form is similar to how the blocks are connected, so it is called a blockchain. Many companies are trying to popularize blockchain-based services at home and abroad, and blockchains are used in various industries. This study introduces the technical characteristics of the blockchain and deals with application services utilizing the blockchain. Introducing 5 types of blockchain architecture and core technologies and introducing blockchain application services that are used in payment services, blockchain service networks, blockchain real estate platforms, identity verification, cryptocurrency, diamond distribution path tracking, and blog information recording. do. It is expected to increase the understanding of the blockchain and provide usefulness in future blockchain research and service development.

In this paper, we propose a technique for blockchain service replication and recovery using kubernetes(BR2K) that robustly executes blockchain services based on replication and supports systematic recovery in case of the service failure. Blockchain services are being developed and applied in various fields such as administration, finance, and medical systems based on the features of blockchain, such as decentralization, high security, and data integrity. In such areas where service continuity is important, it is necessary to provide robustness for execution of blockchain services, and a recovery plan for service failure is also required. To this end, BR2K provides an execution replication technique that systematically supports the sustainable execution of blockchain application services. Also, it introduces a robust container registry based on the blockchain service registry, systematically supporting the recovery of service failures by using it. In addition, Truffle, a blockchain service development framework, is extended to utilize the Kubernetes container management tool, and BR2K provides a technique for rapidly deploying blockchain services using the extended framwork.

In this paper, we introduce InfoDID, a robust user information management service based on DID that manages user information reliably. Since blockchain technology provides an environment in which data can be handled transparently on a decentralized basis, various services using blockchain are currently being developed As the importance of user's personal information has recently emerged, the DID technology is receiving attention. The technology allows a user to control his or her information through decentralized identifiers, and various information management services are being tried based on the technology. Using blockchain-based DID technology, InfoDID reliably controls personal information requested frequently, helping users to provide their information to other services more conveniently. In addition, to support service continuity, InfoDID uses BR2K technique that provides robust execution of blockchain application services, so that even partial service failures can be systematically recovered. To facilitate this operation, we present a replication status monitoring tool that can continuously check the replication states of blockchain application services running in association with the BR2K technique such as InfoDID.

In this paper, we propose a robust execution scheme for Ethereum blockchain application services which provide continuous services and support recovery even in the case of failures of those services. As of now, blockchain services are rapidly expanding to all industries and being combined with various infrastructure services of public institutions. But if these services fail in disastrous situations such as earthquakes, floods and terrors or various hacking attacks, the aftermath is very serious and its side effects are difficult to assess. To resolve this issue, we develop the service registry as a smart contract of the Ethereum blockchain, which provides useful information on the services to users even in disasters. With the help of the service registry, we also present a method of replicating services on the basis of the ETCD distributed storage system. The proposed scheme is confirmed by the test service developed by the proposed techniques.

ISO/TC307 기술위원회는 분산원장 기초적인 기술표준에서 응용, 디지털자산 및 디지털 화폐와 같은 응용/서비스 표준개발로 중심이 이동한 듯한 분위기이다. 영국이 TC68과의 협동으로 디지털 화폐 개발에 열정을 보이고 있다. 금융대국영국이 블록체인 기반 디지털 금융 산업에서 선두 지위를 확보하고자 노력하고 있다는 것을 피부로 느낄 수 있는 회의였다고 판단이 된다. 한편 미국은 NFT를 이용한 물리 자산의 디지털 표현 표준을 담당하는 WG8을 신설 한 것은 선진국가들이 블록체인을 이용하여 산업의 실질 표준개발을 지향하고 있다고 판단한다. 이에 한국에서도 블록체인감사지침, 분산원장을 위한 27002 등을 제안하여 표준개발 중이다.

After Bitcoin was proposed by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009, studies have been carried out to apply the Block Chain technology in various environment, which was applied as a distributed transaction of Bitcoin. Smart contracts, voting and proof of ownership of digital contents are typical applications of Block Chain. They used the feature that it is impossible to modify or delete once recorded facts. They also applied to prove relevant facts and to provide data integrity. The applied cases are mainly made in an environment where the data should or could be open to the public, and they have been proposed as solutions to solve the problems occurred in relations. This fact has led to the attention that Block Chain can be applied as a good alternative in similar circumstances. In this study, real estate market service was selected to expand the application range of Block Chain. Although there are about 250 applications and web services in total, the satisfaction is not high due to false offerings. Thus we propose a countermeasure against the problem by applying the Block Chain to the real estate market service, and investigate the research direction of the Block Chain in the future market.

A blockchain is a technology in which all nodes participating in a distributed network manage each transaction's contents without a central server managing the transaction, which is a record of the transaction. The block containing the transaction record of a specific period is connected to the blockchain by referring to the hash value for the previous block, and the chain with the new block added is shared with all nodes again. Transactions using existing certificates will pass through FinTech, and in the near future, applications using blockchains are expected to emerge. In this study, we analyze the problems of the existing model, and propose a transaction model that applies the blockchain to come. Among various applications, this study develops a trading model targeting the energy sales market among the topics that will lead the fourth industrial revolution. As a result of analyzing the proposed model, it was possible to be sure of the possibility of a safer energy sales transaction than the existing method.

본 논문에서는 인터넷으로 블록체인 플랫폼 및 서비스를 제공하는 BaaS 환경에서 IAM 서비스를 이용한 개인정보 보호 시스템을 설계했다. 서비스 사용자는 API를 통해 클라우드에 데이터를 요청하는데, 사용자와 클라우드 사이에 API 미들웨어를 두어 클라우드 데이터에 직접 접근하지 못하도록 한다. 또한, 미들웨어의 역할을 하는 서버는 IAM(Identity & Access Management) 서비스에서 생성한 역할 및 정책, 권한에 따라 허가된 데이터에만 접근하며 사용자의 데이터 요청 전/후로 인증 절차를 진행해 시스템의 기밀성 및 무결성을 만족할 수 있도록 한다.
