Abstract
Cyber-Physical System (CPS) enables to combine the physical objects with computing and storage capabilities to have data exchange in an interconnected network of systems and objects. Blockchain is a recently distributed computing paradigm that provides a promising solution for modern CPS application. It forms an underpinning technique for CPS that offers strong added value to industrial IoT (IIoT), fault-tolerant, reliable, secure, and efficient computing infrastructure. The inherent integration of consensus algorithms and distributed storage with advanced security protocols provides powerful solutions for CPS applications. Blockchains in CPSs/IoT ensure secure and saved information for different industrial applications and achieve a means of adaptability, process, and operation protection, for example, in manufacturing, transportation, health care, and energy applications. This chapter will provide extensive technical background for blockchain in IoT-based CPS. Applications, opportunities, and challenges for the combination of CPS, IoT, and blockchain were presented.
