Hintergrund

Traceability of any food item becomes more and more important as supply chains grow steadily more complex. Storing all the individual steps of a product, its ingredients and additional information e.g. sensor data in one central database is not feasible, as it must be fault proof and tamper-resistant. Smart Contracts in combination with Blockchains could possibly be the solution to bring a fully traceable supply chain to life.

Zielsetzung der Arbeit

Developing a prototype of a supply chain from wine-field to bottle based on the Ethereum Blockchain and Smart Contracts. The individual interactions should be visualized in a web-based UI.

Konkrete Aufgaben

Theory:

  • What are smart contracts (and Blockchains)
  • Research of existing Blockchain solutions for supply chains

Practical:

  • Sketching and programming the required structure of Smart Contracts in the programming language Solidity
  • Building concept of a web-based frontend to visualize the individual interactions with the Smart Contracts
