Abstract
As blockchain technology has gained popularity in many
different application areas, there is a need to have
tools for prototyping and evaluating various ways of
applying blockchains. One interesting venue where this
type of evaluation is very important is Internet of
Things (IoT). In IoT scenarios the efficiency in energy
consumption and also the timeliness of the transactions
on the blockchain are important variables to consider. We
present a way to apply an existing simulation tool
-ABSOLUT - in evaluating blockchain implementations on
embedded devices. We show the results of simulations on
Raspberry Pi and NVIDIA Jetson Tk1 platforms and compare
the latter to actual executions. Our tool receives a
fairly small error (9% on the average) and we see it as a
great way to help in deciding the parameters for
different blockchain implementations.
