Current anti-counterfeiting supply chains rely on a centralized authority to combat counterfeit products. This architecture results in issues such as single point processing, storage, and failure. Blockchain technology has emerged to provide a promising solution for such issues. In this paper, we propose the block-supply chain, a new decentralized supply chain that detects counterfeiting attacks using blockchain and Near Field Communication (NFC) technologies. Block-supply chain replaces the…

A Survey on Using Blockchain in Trade Supply Chain Solutions
TLDR
This paper underline several issues that occur during the designing of the blockchain solution to optimise the (international) trade supply chain and highlights the challenges that are associated with applying this technology to optimising the trading domain.
A Blockchain-Based Application System for Product Anti-Counterfeiting
TLDR
A decentralized Blockchain system with products anti-counterfeiting is described, in that way manufacturers can use this system to provide genuine products without having to manage direct-operated stores, which can significantly reduce the cost of product quality assurance.
How Blockchain Enhances Supply Chain Management: A Survey
TLDR
This paper introduces blockchain and survey recent blockchain frameworks that address some of the supply chain challenges, and describes the components and operation of these blockchain frameworks.
Product Identification System Using Block chain
TLDR
This paper uses the decentralized Blockchain technology approach to confirm that buyers don't fully depend on the merchants to work out if products are genuine, and manufacturers can use this method to supply genuine products without having to manage direct-operated stores, which may significantly reduce the value of product quality assurance.
Managing the Product-Counterfeiting Problem with a Blockchain-Supported E-Commerce Platform
As a disruptive tool, blockchain technology can eradicate the product-counterfeiting problem in supply chains. However, a blockchain-supported platform charges an operating fee to legitimate…
Data Management in Supply Chain Using Blockchain: Challenges and a Case Study
TLDR
This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of potential opportunities, new requirements, and principles of designing blockchain-based SCM systems, and discusses four crucial technical challenges in terms of scalability, throughput, access control, and data retrieval.
Permissioned Blockchain Model for End-to-End Trackability in Supply Chain Management
TLDR
An asset transfer model can be employed to enhance supply chain trackability using permissioned blockchain and how the permissioned blockchains can be used in realizing the business case is proposed.
A Secure and Credible Supply Chain System Based on Blockchain
TLDR
The performance analysis demonstrates that the proposed system provides satisfied security and the numerical results illustrate that the award and punishment scheme can offer remarkable incentives for IoT devices to upload correct messages while keeping the system credible.
Towards a Supply Chain Management System for Counterfeit Mitigation using Blockchain and PUF
TLDR
The threat model of an adversary interested in tampering with physical products along the supply chain is defined, the design of the tracking system that implements the proposed anti-counterfeiting approach is provided and a prototype evaluation is presented to show its technical feasibility and assess its effectiveness in counterfeit mitigation.
Interoperable Blockchains for Highly-Integrated Supply Chains in Collaborative Manufacturing
TLDR
The achieved and reported experimental results show that the proposed security solution introduces an additional latency that is entirely tolerable for transactions, and the usage of the Trusted Execution Environment imposes a negligible overhead.

TLDR
RFID and blockchain technology can realize the traceability with trusted information in the entire agri-food supply chain, which would effectively guarantee the food safety, by gathering, transferring and sharing the authentic data of agre-food in production, processing, warehousing, distribution and selling links.
Tendermint: Byzantine Fault Tolerance in the Age of Blockchains
TLDR
Tendermint modernizes classic academic work on the subject to provide a secure consensus protocol with accountability guarantees, as well as an interface for building arbitrary applications above the consensus.
A review of existing and emerging digital technologies to combat the global trade in fake medicines
TLDR
Digital fake medicine solutions are unifying platforms that integrate different types of anti-counterfeiting technologies as complementary solutions, improve information sharing and data collection, and are designed to overcome existing barriers of adoption and implementation.
The Stellar Consensus Protocol : A Federated Model for Internet-level Consensus
TLDR
A new model for consensus called federated Byzantine agreement (FBA), which achieves robustness through quorum slices—individual trust decisions made by each node that together determine system-level quorums.

TLDR
A solution to the blockchain consensus problem that does not require mining is proposed by adapting an existing problem to the Byzantine Generals Problem.
Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System
TLDR
This work proposes a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network, where the network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof- of-work.
Securing Pharmaceutical and High-Value Products against Tag Reapplication Attacks Using NFC Tags

The security of TRD is analyzed and it is found that it can detect reapplication attacks, in addition to modification and cloning attacks.
In Search of an Understandable Consensus Algorithm
TLDR
Raft is a consensus algorithm for managing a replicated log that separates the key elements of consensus, such as leader election, log replication, and safety, and it enforces a stronger degree of coherency to reduce the number of states that must be considered.
