Dear Colleagues,
The development of blockchain started with the introduction of Bitcoin in 2009. Since then, blockchain technology has been applied in many areas and has brought revolutionary changes to fields including healthcare, cybersecurity, supply chain and logistics, banking, accounting, etc. For business, blockchain technology offers fundamental building blocks to facilitate the implementation of cooperative business processes in a decentralized environment. Considering the emerging business prospects and inherent complexity of blockchain technology, we seek submissions of manuscripts with significant research contribution to “Blockchain Technology and Business Process Design” that investigate new applications, invent novel techniques, introduce advanced methodologies, propose promising research directions, and discuss approaches for unsolved issues.
The Special Issue welcomes topics that include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Blockchain for business process monitoring;

- Design and implementation of blockchain-based Business Process Management Systems;
- Modeling of blockchain-based business process;
