Propuesta para el uso de Blockchain en un caso de estudio con sistemas de Industria 4.0

Abstract

The propose for use the Blockchain in a study case with a Industry 4.0 system, arises due to the results of new research and technological innovations. The Blockchain or also known as blockchain, revolutionizes the traditional transactional processes as they are known today, initially its field of action that presents it to the world is the field of cryptocurrencies. However, the application of this technique does not stop there. Fields of application have been explored in different areas ranging from health, government, administrative, financial and even manufacturing, among others. For this reason arises the intention to deepen on the subject starting from the present proposal, which begins from a research act, to identify possible techniques and tools to implement this purpose, generating a representative and approximate model of a system that contains devices that can establish communication with an Internet platform, that adds a second component known as the Internet of Things (IoT), not without first performing the due processing of the information, being ready to be marked with a unique value that identifies it within its system, with a time stamp and a registered value, concatenated with each other, as a result of applying Blockchain technology. The integration of the above described is achieved, as a possible proposal to be implemented in real life systems, reaching to solve issues of resource availability for the manufacture of products; the early identification of failures within a manufacturing process; without leaving aside the improvement in the use of raw materials and response times to the different operations within the process.
