Abstract:

© 2020 Elsevier Ltd Reputation systems offer a medium where users can quantify the trustworthiness or reliability of individuals providing online services or products. In the past, researchers have used blockchain technology for reputation systems. Smart contracts are computer protocols which have the primary objective to supervise, implement, or validate performances or negotiations of contracts. However, through a systematic literature review, in this paper, we find that the existing literature has not proposed a framework that facilitates the interchangeable use of smart contracts for blockchain-based reputation systems. We adopt a systematic literature review from 30 relevant studies and the data from them were extracted before identifying the research gaps. As a solution to the research gaps, we propose the FarMed framework for creating an intelligent framework that will execute Ethereum smart contact-based reputation systems and develop reliable blockchain-based protocols for transferring reputation values from one provider to another. We briefly explain our proposed framework before concluding with our future work.
