Analysis of the Operation of a Distributed Ledger: An Example of the Airport

Abstract

Possibilities to use distributed ledger technology are shown referring to storing data in information systems of airports and aviation systems of various levels. The features of the operation of a distributed ledger are noted regarding information systems. Various options for generating messages for storage using distributed ledger technology are studied along with the parameters of message flows. The features of using blockchain technology when creating distributed ledger are highlighted in case of the need to correct the stored information. Apossibility to use network technologies is shown for forming distributed ledger, the nodes of which are located at significant distances from each other (registries of several airports). The provided data can be used to create reliable distributed information storage facilities, both within a separate airport and for a group of airports.
