    Abstract: The disclosure relates to decentralized management of edge nodes operating outside an enterprise network using blockchain technology. A management node may operate within a firewall of the enterprise to manage the edge nodes operating outside the firewall using blockchain technology. The management node may coordinate management by writing change requests to a decentralized ledger. The edge nodes may read the change requests from its local copy of the distributed ledger and implement the change requests. Upon implementation, an edge node may broadcast its status to the blockchain network. The management node may mine the transactions from the edge nodes into the distributed ledger, thereby creating a secure and scalable way to coordinate management and record the current and historical system state. The system also provides the edge nodes with a cryptographically secured, machine-to-machine maintained, single version of truth, enabling them to take globally valid decision based on local data.

    Abstract: Decentralized machine learning to build models is performed at nodes where local training datasets are generated. A blockchain platform may be used to coordinate decentralized machine learning (ML) over a series of iterations. For each iteration, a distributed ledger may be used to coordinate the nodes communicating via a blockchain network. A node can include self-healing features to recover from a fault condition within the blockchain network in manner that does not negatively impact the overall learning ability of the decentralized ML system. During self-healing, the node can determine that a local ML state is not consistent with the global ML state and trigger a corrective action to recover the local ML state. Thereafter, the node can generate a blockchain transaction indicating that it is in-sync with the most recent iteration of training, and informing other nodes to reintegrate the node into ML.
