RWA-BFT: Reputation-Weighted Asynchronous BFT for Large-Scale IoT by Guanwei Jia, Zhaoyu Shen, Hongye Sun, Jingbo Xin, Dongyu Wang

“…However, existing blockchain consensus mechanisms struggle to meet the high throughput, low latency, and scalability demands of IoT applications. To address these limitations, RWA-BFT adopts a two-layer blockchain architecture; the first layer leverages reputation-based filtering to reduce computational complexity by excluding low-reputation nodes, while the second layer employs an asynchronous consensus mechanism to ensure efficient and secure communication among high-reputation nodes, even under network delays. …”
