Blockchain has great potential to create new foundations for our socio-economic systems by efficiently establishing trust among people and machines, reducing cost, and increasing utilization of resources. This book presents how blockchain can be applied in a wide variety of applications, including finance, healthcare, power grid, transportation, supply chain management, artificial intelligence, cloud/edge/fog computing and others. In addition, mathematical modeling of blockchain is presented from the aspects of scalability, decentralization, latency and security. Moreover, this paper presents a performance optimization framework for blockchain systems to improve the performance of data security and efficiency, where the four-way trade-off, i.e., scalability, decentralization, latency and security, is considered.
