Rustam Sadriev

Bachelor's thesis

Abstract:

The Bachelor's Thesis describes the main elements concerning urban mobility and the current state and possibilities of blockchain. The thesis also examines the possibility of combining these 2 elements and provides a strategy for the implementation of a blockchain-based system within Prague. Based on the objectives of the project, the author analyses the current blockchain-based projects in order to form an information base for the study of the possible creation of the project, as well as a number of analyses to obtain information about the possible prospects of this direction. As a result of the work, the author gives a finished version of the applied project, which includes the use of blockchain to analyse the city parking situation, as well as the possibility of booking and renting a parking space. The author also concludes this thesis with a number of recommendations for further research into the current direction of the service, for research into blockchain possibilities, and for further research into the issue of urban mobility and urban parking within other cities.
