THE FIFTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON BLOCKCHAIN COMPUTING AND APPLICATIONS (BCCA 2023)
in Conjunction with KUWAIT FINTECH AND BLOCKCHAIN SUMMIT 24–26 October 2023 – Kuwait City, Kuwait **************************************************************************************** Blockchain is a revolutionary technology in decentralized systems that enables secure decentralized transaction processing while ensuring data privacy and authenticity. It is now playing a significant role in several areas such as the Internet of Things, supply-chain management, manufacturing, cyber-physical systems, healthcare systems, and much more. Unlike centralized transaction processing solutions, blockchain uses a distributed ledger mechanism to record data transactions on multiple devices, this will prevent data breaches, identity theft, and a plethora of cyber-related attacks, in essence, leading to sustainability in data privacy and security. This conference aims to attract the work of both researchers and practitioners in the area of cyber-security to share and exchange their experiences and research studies in both academia and industry in the field of blockchain. Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions in all major areas, which include, but are not limited to: +Track 01: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning -Blockchain-based artificial Intelligent Systems applications in Computers and Communications -Blockchain-based AI and Robotics Technologies -Blockchain-based AI and cloud computing -Blockchain-based Economic paradigms and game theory -Blockchain-based Machine and Deep Learning of Knowledge -Blockchain-based Distributed Knowledge and Processing -Blockchain-based Humans-Agents Interactions / Human-Robot Interactions +Track 02: IoT and Cyber-Physical Systems -Blockchain-based IoT Applications and Services -Blockchain-based security for the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems -Blockchain-based Internet of Things architectures and protocols -Blockchain in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) -Blockchain-based application in Intelligent Manufacturing: Industrial Internet of Things, -Blockchain and Secure Critical Infrastructure with Industry 4.0 -Intelligent manufacture and management -Consensus and mining algorithms suited for resource-limited IoTs -Blockchain-based Controlled mobility and QoS -Blockchain-based energy optimization techniques in WSN -Blockchain-based Software-defined networks +Track 03: Big Data -Blockchain in Data Fusion -Blockchain Analytics and Data mining -Distributed data store for blockchain -Distributed transactions for the blockchain -Blockchain-based Data Science and Data Engineering -Protocols for management and access using blockchains -Blockchain architectures tailored for domain-specific applications +Track 04: Security and Privacy on the Blockchain -Authentication and authorization in Blockchain -Applications of blockchain technologies in digital forensic -Privacy aspects of blockchain technologies -Blockchain-based threat intelligence and threat analytics techniques -Blockchain-based open-source tools -Forensics readiness of blockchain technologies -Blockchain Attacks on Existing Systems -Blockchain Consensus Algorithms -Blockchain-based Intrusion Detection/Prevention -Security and Privacy in Blockchain and Critical Infrastructure -Attacks on Blockchain and Critical Infrastructure -Blockchain and Secure Critical Infrastructure with Smart Grid +Track 05: Metaverse and Digital Twin -Blockchain in the Metaverse -Blockchain in the digital twin -NFT Applications and protocols -Edge computing for Internet of Metaverse -Network security of the metaverse -Digital Twin and Metaverse privacy -Consensus and mining algorithms suited for the metaverse -Blockchain-based Controlled mobility and QoS in the Metaverse -Cybersecurity in the Metaverse +Track 06: Blockchain Research & Applications for Innovative Networks and Services -State-of-the-art of Blockchain technology and cybersecurity -Blockchain-based security solutions for smart cities infrastructures -Blockchain in connected and autonomous vehicles (CAV) and ITS) -Blockchain Technologies and Methodologies -Recent Development and emerging trends Blockchain -New models, practical solutions, and technological advances related to Blockchain -Theory of Blockchain in Cybersecurity -Applications of blockchain technologies in computer & hardware security -Implementation challenges facing blockchain technologies -Blockchain in social networking -Performance metric design, modeling, and evaluation of blockchain systems -Network and computing optimization in blockchains -Experimental prototyping and testbeds for blockchains IEEE Technical Co-sponsorship (Approved) Special track Guidelines : Short papers: (5-6 pages).
