Paper Abstract:
|
Quality control is a key process for goods-producing companies. Its purpose is to verify that the produced goods meet the
desired quality. Data collected during this process is used for internal controlling purposes as well as for external
customer-facing communication. While some customers require access to the collected data during and after the production
process, it is also used to convince prospects of the high quality of goods. Publishing such information comes with two
major challenges. First, how can the recipient be convinced that data was not altered to be hidden? Second, how the risk of
information disclosure be mitigated? One way to address these challenges is to digitalize the production and quality control
processes and apply data management techniques to the collected data. Blockchain technology can be used to foster trust
in the collected and later shared information. In this paper, we present our approach to mapping production orders on
Ethereum based Smart Contracts. |
