ABSTRACT
This paper presents a blockchain extension of the run-time Sensing as a Service SOA (3SOA) approach presented in [5]. 3SOA defines a practical approach for implementing service-oriented Internet of Things (IoT) using coordination languages to integrate and program individual IoT objects to compose into full IoT system. We believe that the modularity, reuse, interoperability and portability of this model has much to offer, but that there exist some challenges in overcoming the performance issues inherent in the approach, and extending the range of applications to which it is suited. We are particularly interested in applying the coordination languages to decentralized systems. To this end, blockchain smart contracts are proposed to offer a decentralized trustable method to automatically verify compliance with pre-defined conditions before executing a transaction involving multiple parties. To validate our proposal, we demonstrate a healthcare functional prototypes as a proof of concept.
