Project Plan: IoT and DLT in a Telecom

Project Deliverables

A medium article aggregating the relevant resources and design approach.
Architectural design of an IoT system utilizing Hyperledger Indy for identity management of the devices.
Architectural design of an IoT system enabling device-2-device interaction in an autonomous fashion.
Implementation and testing of the system on a virtual test bed.
Implementation and testing of the system in a real environment. (No physical real environment, virtual instead)
Academic Output: a conference/journal paper outlining the proposal of autonomous device to device communication using Hyperledger Indy. (Schedule on March 2020, Phoenix)
