Abstract
The delegating computation has become an irreversible trend, together comes the pressing need for fairness and efficiency issues. To solve this problem, we leverage game theory to propose a smart contract-based solution. Firstly, according to the behavioral preferences of the participants, we design an incentive contract to describe the motivation of the participants. Secondly, to satisfy the fairness of the rational delegating computation, we propose a delegating computation protocol based on the smart contract. Specifically, rational participants are to gain the maximum utility and reach the Nash equilibrium in the protocol. Besides, we design a reputation mechanism with a reputation certificate, which measures the reputation from multiple dimensions. And the reputation is used to assure the client’s trust in the computing party to improve the efficiency of the protocol. Finally, the analysis results show that the proposed protocol solves the complex traditional verification problem. Meanwhile, we prove the fairness and correctness of the protocol.
