Abstract

Blockchain has become a mainstream technology in our society in recent years. With its nature of secure decentralization, people can create decentralized applications by developing smart contracts on top of a blockchain platform. With blockchain, technology is still in the developing phase, the smart contract development process in blockchain has its unique complexity and uncertainty. The condition will drive the challenge for any developers to work on this issue. In this research, we determine the smart contract development model in creating decentralized applications. Our proposed model aligned with our findings in the systematic mapping process of this study.
