    Compress-Store on Blockchain: a Decentralized Data Processing and Immutable Storage for Multimedia Streaming
    (Springer, 2022) Arslan, Şuayb Şefik; Arslan, Şefik Şuayb; Goker, Turguy; 02.02. Department of Computer Engineering; 02. Faculty of Engineering; 01. MEF University
    Decentralization for data storage is a challenging problem for blockchain-based solutions as the blocksize plays a key role for scalability. In addition, specific requirements of multimedia data call for various changes in the blockchain technology internals. Considering one of the most popular applications of secure multimedia streaming, i.e., video surveillance, it is not clear how to judiciously encode incentivization, immutability, and compression into a viable ecosystem. In this study, we provide a genuine scheme that achieves this encoding for a video surveillance application. The proposed scheme provides a novel integration of data compression, immutable off-chain data storage using a new consensus protocol namely, Proof-of-WorkStore (PoWS) in order to enable fully useful work to be performed by the miner nodes of the network. The proposed idea is the first step towards achieving greener application of a blockchain-based environment to the video storage business that utilizes system resources efficiently.

    Advancements in Distributed Ledger Technology for Internet of Things
    (Elsevier, 2020) Jurdak, Raja; Arslan, Şefik Şuayb; Krishnamachari, Bhaskar; Jelitto, Jens; 02.02. Department of Computer Engineering; 02. Faculty of Engineering; 01. MEF University
    Internet of Things (IoT) is paving the way for different kinds of devices to be connected and properly communicated at a mass scale. However, conventional mechanisms used to sustain security and privacy cannot be directly applied to IoT whose topology is increasingly becoming decentralized. Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) on the other hand comprise varying forms of decentralized data structures that provide immutability through cryptographically linking blocks of data. To be able to build reliable, autonomous and trusted IoT platforms, DLT has the potential to provide security, privacy and decentralized operation while adhering to the limitations of IoT devices. The marriage of IoT and DLT technology is not very recent. In fact many projects have been focusing on this interesting combination to address the challenges of smart cities, smart grids, internet of everything and other decentralized applications, most based on blockchain structures. In this special issue, the focus is on the new and broader technical problems associated with the DLT-based security and backend platform solutions for IoT devices and applications.

    An Overview of Blockchain Technologies: Principles, Opportunities and Challenges
    (IEEE, 2018) Arslan, Şuayb Şefik; Arslan, Şefik Şuayb; Mermer, Gültekin Berahan; Zeydan, Engin; 02.02. Department of Computer Engineering; 02. Faculty of Engineering; 01. MEF University
    Blokzincir, toplumumuzun birbiriyle iletişim kurma ve ticaret yapma biçiminde devrim yapma potansiyeline sahip, yakın zamanda ortaya çıkmış olan bir teknolojidir. Bu teknolojinin sağladığı en önemli avantaj aracı gerektiren bir oluşumda güvenilir bir merkezi kuruma ihtiyaç duymadan değer taşıyan işlemleri değiş tokuş edebilmesidir. Ayrıca, veri bütünlüğü, dahili orijinallik ve kullanıcı şeffaflığı sağlayabilir. Blokzincir, birçok yenilikçi uygulamanın temel alınacağı yeni internet olarak görülebilir. Bu çalışmada, genel çalışma prensibi, oluşan fırsatlar ve ileride karşılaşılabilecek zorlukları içerecek şekilde güncel blokzincir teknolojilerinin genel bir görünümünü sunmaktayız.
