Abstract

The world today is witnessing a paradigm shift attributed to expedited penetration of new technologies in the ecosystem of routine human lives. One such domain, soon to be impacted is the way traffic and transportation system is organized today. The futurity of transport will be completely different from what we have today. It is going to be based on Internet-of-Vehicles. Still in evolving times though, the envisaged growth of the Internet-of-Vehicles has thrown multiple challenges of ensuring seamless, secure, robust exchange of information between devices. These challenges majorly include large data sets storage, real-time intelligent management and information security for the entire ecosystem of these connected vehicles. The Internet-of-Vehicles being proliferated further by autonomous vehicles in the not so distant future will add to the existing challenges. Blockchain technology, majorly associated with cryptocurrencies, has recently envisaged a range of benefits vide implementation across multiple domains, by offering its inbuilt characteristics including decentralized architecture, enhanced security, immutable and transparency, etc. This paper explores the advantageous connect between smart contracts and Internet-of-Vehicles and need of distributed storage to redefine trust enhancement, security and high storage generated among devices. It proposes architecture based on smart contracts while also simulating a limited part with Internet-of-Vehicles concluding with discussion on challenges ahead.
