ServiceNet

Despite the enormous number of online docking services available, consumers sometimes struggle to discover the services they require from time to time. On the other hand, when finding matching or recommendation platforms from an academic or industry perspective, most of the related work they can find is centralized systems. Unfortunately, the centralized systems often have shortages, such as adv-driven, lack of trust, non-transparency, and unfairness. The authors propose a peer-to-peer (P2P) service network for service discovery and recommendation. ServiceNet is a blockchain-based service ecosystem that promises to provide an open, transparent, self-growing, and self-managing service environment. The article will provide the basic concept, the proto-architecture type's design, and the proto-initial type's implementation and performance assessment.
