Abstract

The possibility of using a blockchain for industrial applications, in particular in the manufacturing sector, is provided. For example, time requirements are specified by the configurability and the selectability of the validation and/or transmission. The distributed database system only validates those transactions which are executed by a corresponding blockchain-based manufacturing system, by a number of nodes confirming that they execute the transactions. The provided is suitable in particular for blockchain IoT applications in which at least one device is intended to execute some kind of control action, and the execution is subject to certain requirements.
