Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Trust is the foundation of Internet security. With the development of networks, the structure of the network becomes more and more complex. On the other hand, modern enterprises tend to be large-scale, and an enterprise often includes multiple functional departments. Interactions between different networks, different departments, or different individuals rely on trust. Because traditional trust management centers are often subject to network attacks and become untrustworthy, people are no longer satisfied with centralized trust management.

The essence of the blockchain is a decentralized, tamper-proof distributed ledger. As a distributed system, the blockchain can play a huge role in solving the problem of centralized trust by using its decentralization and tamper-proof characteristics. This Special Issue is aimed at addressing issues that are involved in the analysis, design, and implementation of trust management based on the blockchain. This includes:

  • Trust management
  • Trust model
  • Trust relationship
  • Trust assessment
  • Crisis of Trust
  • Zero trust
  • Dynamic Trust Management
  • Identity management
  • Authentication
  • IoT Trust Management

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

With the arrival of the 5G era, the Internet of Things (IoT) has entered a new stage, and the amount of IoT data is growing rapidly. The traditional blockchain cannot handle massive amounts of data, which presents scalability challenges for blockchain technology. Existing blockchain improvement technologies such as off-chain payments, protocol improvements, and sharding techniques have performance bottlenecks and limitations in the data, which is rapidly growing. The blockchain is fundamentally a decentralized distributed ledger, and the traditional chain structure is inadequate for addressing concerns such as forks, double-spending attacks, and other factors in the current IoT landscape. In this paper, we propose a high-throughput distributed ledger based on Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) named TEEDAG. We design a consensus algorithm based on self-referencing parallel chains combined with Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) to ensure the security of the consensus process. The experiment proves that TEEDAG demonstrates a significantly higher throughput compared to traditional blockchain solutions and offers improved security and efficiency compared to existing DAG-based distributed ledger solutions.
