论文摘要
作为确保数据安全性，一致性，可追溯性等的重要技术，区块链越来越多地用于物联网（IoT）应用程序中。区块链和边缘计算的集成可以进一步改善网络，计算，存储和安全性方面的资源利用率。本文旨在介绍有关区块链和边缘计算集成的调查。特别是，我们首先概述了区块链和边缘计算。然后，我们介绍了区块链和边缘计算系统集成的一般体系结构。我们下一个研究如何利用区块链使边缘计算受益，以及如何使用边缘计算使区块链受益。我们还讨论了从资源管理，联合优化，数据管理，计算卸载和安全机制的角度，区块链和边缘计算系统集成以及解决方案带来的问题。最后，我们分析并总结了区块链和边缘计算系统的集成以及将来的潜在解决方案所带来的现有挑战。
As an important technology to ensure data security, consistency, traceability, etc., blockchain has been increasingly used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The integration of blockchain and edge computing can further improve the resource utilization in terms of network, computing, storage, and security. This paper aims to present a survey on the integration of blockchain and edge computing. In particular, we first give an overview of blockchain and edge computing. We then present a general architecture of an integration of blockchain and edge computing system. We next study how to utilize blockchain to benefit edge computing, as well as how to use edge computing to benefit blockchain. We also discuss the issues brought by the integration of blockchain and edge computing system and solutions from perspectives of resource management, joint optimization, data management, computation offloading and security mechanism. Finally, we analyze and summarize the existing challenges posed by the integration of blockchain and edge computing system and the potential solutions in the future.
