Efficient information exchange approach for medical IoT based on AI and DAG-enabled blockchain

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) based medical Internet of Things (IoT) technology plays a crucial role in making the collection and exchange of medical information more convenient. However, security, privacy, and efficiency issues during information exchange have become pressing challenges. While many scholars have proposed solutions based on AI and blockchain to address these issues, few have focused on the impact of the slow consensus algorithm of blockchain on the efficiency of information exchange. To improve the efficiency of information exchange, we propose an information exchange approach based on AI and DAG-enabled blockchain, providing a secure and efficient environment for information exchange in the medical IoT. Additionally, to enhance the efficiency of information exchange in the medical IoT, a novel tip selection algorithm is introduced to reduce the time delay in reaching consensus, thereby enabling faster acquisition of trusted information via blockchain. Simulation results demonstrate that compared to methods based on traditional DAG-enabled blockchain, the approach proposed in this paper improves the efficiency of information exchange.

Abstract

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) based medical Internet of Things (IoT) technology plays a crucial role in making the collection and exchange of medical information more convenient. However, security, privacy, and efficiency issues during information exchange have become pressing challenges. While many scholars have proposed solutions based on AI and blockchain to address these issues, few have focused on the impact of the slow consensus algorithm of blockchain on the efficiency of information exchange. To improve the efficiency of information exchange, we propose an information exchange approach based on AI and DAG-enabled blockchain, providing a secure and efficient environment for information exchange in the medical IoT. Additionally, to enhance the efficiency of information exchange in the medical IoT, a novel tip selection algorithm is introduced to reduce the time delay in reaching consensus, thereby enabling faster acquisition of trusted information via blockchain. Simulation results demonstrate that compared to methods based on traditional DAG-enabled blockchain, the approach proposed in this paper improves the efficiency of information exchange.
