The growing interest in blockchain technology has gained a lot of attention in Supply Chain Management (SCM) and sparked the quest for decentralized, scalable, efficient and trustworthy consensus schemes. Traditional blockchains rely on computationally expensive consensus mechanisms with low throughput and high latency. This paper conducts a performance evaluation of several existing consensus protocols to illustrate blockchain’s shortcomings in terms of consensus and propose a new consensus algorithm: Reputation based proof of cooperation (RPoC). The RPoC algorithm uses a layered architecture to segment the nodes that participate in the consensus phase in order to improve scalability... |
