ABSTRACT
The emerging Internet of Things needs edge-computing - this is an established fact. In turn, edge computing needs infrastructure decentralisation. What is not necessarily established yet is that infrastructure decentralisation needs a distributed model of Internet governance and decentralised trust schemes. We discuss the features of a decentralised IoT and edge-computing ecosystem and list the components that need to be designed, as well the challenges that need to be addressed.

A blockchain-based trust system for decentralised applications: When trustless needs trust
AbstractBlockchain technology has been envisaged to commence an era of decentralised applications and services (DApps) without the need for a trusted intermediary. Such DApps open a marketplace in which services are delivered to end-users by ...
Highlights- Introduce a novel concept and provision of a universal decentralised trust system that can be integrated into any DApps sharing a same Blockchain platform.
