Abstract:
An off-chain data storage method and apparatus for supporting the integrity and capacity scalability of a data object stored in an off-chain storage. The off-chain data storage method includes collecting a plurality of transactions for a plurality of data objects, creating a root transaction on the basis of a Merkle root of a Merkle tree created based on the collected transactions, and storing the root transaction in a blockchain storage.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of operating a software-defined network (SDN) controller located in a decentralized SDN including a plurality of SDN switches and a plurality of SDN controllers, the method including receiving a transaction including network event information from at least one SDN switch of the plurality of SDN switches, determining a block generation entity with at least one other SDN controller based on a consensus algorithm, and, when the SDN controller is determined as the block generation entity, generating a block including the transaction and propagating the block to the at least one other SDN controller and the plurality of SDN switches. Also, a corresponding method of operating a SDN switch is disclosed.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a Quality of Service (QoS) providing method and apparatus in a software-defined networking (SDN) based network, the QoS providing method including receiving a first packet of a predetermined flow, searching for forwarding information corresponding to the packet and QoS rule information corresponding to the packet in a forwarding table and a QoS rule table, respectively, transmitting the packet to a controller if the forwarding information and the QoS rule information do not exist in the forwarding table and the QoS rule table, and generating a flow entry corresponding to the packet in a flow learning table based on forwarding information and QoS rule information that are received from the controller, thereby efficiently providing QoS.
Abstract:
A decentralized group signature method for an issuer-anonymized credential system includes (a) an initial system setup operation of defining elements of a group signature method and information that is generated and shared by each group member, (b) an initial group member setup operation, (c) a group member participation operation of adding a new group member to a group, (d) a group signature operation of putting a group signature on a specific message, (e) an operation of verifying the group signature, (f) an operation of removing anonymity from a group signature for a specific group member with agreement of group members, and (g) an operation of revoking a specific group member with agreement of the group members. Exclusive authority of a group manager is distributed to the group members.
Abstract:
Provided are an electronic device and method for managing a decentralized identifier (DID) and more specifically a device and method for managing a DID by giving authority over the DID to a user according to a priority level selected by the user.
Abstract:
