DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we will discuss some key characteristics of bloc
 kchain and a few promising applications of blockchain that can facilitate 
 security and trust among multiple parties. Some examples include applying 
 blockchain to secure software updates for resource-constrained IoT network
 s\; designing a secure and efficient multi-signature scheme to facilitate 
 multi-party approval process on Fabric\, an enterprise blockchain platform
 \; and facilitating fair trading of digital-goods via a blockchain based p
 roxy re-encryption scheme.\n\nWith the prosperity of edge computing\, mass
 ive users and devices at the edge of the computer networks are more active
 ly involved in the networks\, pushing the information collection\, computa
 tion\, storage\, and communications more towards end users. In these more 
 decentralized systems\, how to enable efficient and trustworthy interactio
 ns among different parties becomes an essential issue.\n\nBlockchain has b
 een considered as a promising approach to facilitate the establishment of 
 decentralized trustworthy computing systems with non-repudiated informatio
 n records. With the emergence of Bitcoin\, blockchain has attracted wide a
 ttention as a secure and decentralized platform to enable peer-to-peer exc
 hanges of digital currency. However\, Bitcoin can only support simple scri
 pts\, which limit its major applications to only decentralized finance. Et
 hereum is the most well-known permissionless blockchain platform that gene
 ralizes the system as a state machine and enables smart contracts\, a piec
 e of code that can support complex logic and be self-executed when certain
  conditions are met. Such generalization enables blockchain to potentially
  serve as a computing infrastructure to facilitate secure and decentralize
