step S2: efficiently and safely gathering and storing tracing information of quality events of the prefabricated part at nodes during a full life cycle;
step S3: performing blockchain distributed bookkeeping to the tracing information of the quality events of the prefabricated part at the nodes during the full life cycle; and
step S4: realizing quality tracing of the prefabricated part at the nodes during the full life cycle based on a uniform tracing interface and a safe access policy.
In the present embodiment, the step S1 comprises:
step S101: encoding unifiedly prefabricated parts. This step integrates the relevant international norms for quality tracing, and the current standards in China of classification of prefabricated construction parts and so on, to systematically form an unifiedly encoding regulation of prefabricated parts that is open-ended, extendable, suitable for the situation of a country and compatible with the international norms, including but not limited to the following example:
The BIM-model two-dimensional code is used to download a BIM light-weighting model, the variable field is reserved as standby information, and the length is used to record the total length of the encoding.
step S102: identifying unifiedly the prefabricated parts by using RFIDs or barcodes.
The RFID/barcode gathering devices are the related operators (such as fingerprints and irises) are unifiedly identified.
step S103: encoding and describing unifiedly quality events of the prefabricated parts at the nodes. Unified encoding regulations of quality events are systematically formed, including but not limited to the following example:
The BIM-model two-dimensional code is used to download a BIM light-weighting model, the variable field is reserved as standby information, and the length is used to record the total length of the encoding. The source-blockchain address represents the address of the blockchain where the current quality event happens, and the destination-blockchain address represents the address of the blockchain that the current information is required to be transmitted to. The quality event is transmitted from the source-blockchain address to the destination-blockchain addresses via a proprietary network, and firstly enters the information queue of the destination-blockchain addresses, and the pieces of information in the information queue are transmitted to the destination blockchains in a sequence in which the information coming earlier is processed earlier.
step S104: defining tracing interfaces and access protocols of the quality events of the prefabricated parts at the nodes.
Particularly, intra-blockchain and inter-blockchain tracing interfaces of the above quality events are defined, and are used to, based on the different safe access policies, feed back open information and private information to inquiring parties according to different permission settings of the inquiring parties.
In the present embodiment, the step S2 comprises:
step S201: by using a gathering unit (gathering by using a fixed device/gathering by using a hand-held device), efficiently gathering the tracing information of the quality events of the prefabricated part at nodes such as designing, production, transportation, construction, operation, maintenance and supervision; and
step S202: by using a storing and screening unit, storing quality-event business information of the nodes in business systems of the nodes, screening critical quality tracing information, and keeping the critical quality tracing information into a blockchain distributed ledger.
The quality-event business information includes a quality event ID, tracing-interface information and safety-policy information. The critical quality tracing information includes authenticated-device information, operator information (such as fingerprints and irises), encrypted information and so on.
The encrypting modes of the encrypted information include but are not limited to random encryption as in the present embodiment, and the key is generated randomly, encrypted by using MD5, and added the tracing information.
In the present embodiment, the step S3 particularly comprises, by using the blockchain bookkeeping module 3, performing blockchain distributed bookkeeping to the tracing information of the quality events of the nodes, to realize the decentralization, undeletableness and unchangeableness of the storage of the quality-event tracing information at the critical nodes. The type of the blockchain is between public blockchain and private blockchain, which can effectively improve the consensus efficiency and the expansibility of the nodes. Moreover, the step comprises performing classification and feature extraction to the quality tracing data of the authorized enterprises and the authorized reading devices based on the multilayer convolutional neural network, to perform action judgement and authorization controlling. The step particularly comprises:
step S301: establishing and initializing a blockchain, authorizing read-write access permission to the blockchain, analyzing operation data and operation characteristics of an authorized party, and if an abnormal behavior happens, revoking the permission.
Particularly, the type of the blockchain employed in this step is between public blockchain and private blockchain, which can effectively improve the consensus efficiency and the expansibility of the nodes. A core enterprise (the authorizing party) establishes and initializes the blockchain. The enterprise may authorize the read-write access permission on the blockchain to other enterprises (the authorized parties), and analyze the operation data and the operation characteristics of the authorized enterprise (the authorized parties) every day. If an abnormal behavior happens, the core enterprise (the authorizing party) can revoke the permission at any time.
Particularly, the authenticated devices of the authorized enterprises (the authorized parties) can write quality-event tracing information into the blockchain. The predominant enterprise (the authorizing party) issues certificates to the authenticated devices, and analyzes the operation data and the operation characteristics of the authenticated devices every day. If an abnormal behavior happens, the predominant enterprise (the authorizing party) can revoke the certificate of authority at any time.
The authenticated device operates a closed operating system, wherein the operating system is a quality tracing system. If it is detected that another process is running, the system writes abnormal information into the blockchain. The predominant enterprise (the authorizes party), after obtaining the abnormal information by inquiring the blockchain, can revoke the certificate of authority at any time. The information of each of the authenticated devices can be inquired in the blockchain.
step S302: keeping an ID, critical tracing information, a digital signature and a timestamp of the quality event into the blockchain distributed ledger.
Particularly, when an authorized node generates a quality event, the ID, the critical tracing information, the digital signature and the timestamp of the quality event are kept into the blockchain distributed ledger; and when an authorized node and an associated authorized node generate quality events, the IDs, the critical tracing information, the digital signatures of both parties and the timestamps of the quality events are kept into the blockchain distributed ledger.
step S303: performing, by a supervising party, casual inspection to the quality event to obtain supervision-result information, and keeping the ID, the supervision-result information, the digital signature and the timestamp of the quality event into the blockchain.
Particularly, when the authorized business nodes (designing, production, transportation, constructing, operation and maintenance) generate a quality event, a pair of public key and private key of quality event is simultaneously generated. The public key can be disclosed to all of the nodes, and the private key is not disclosed. The supervising party, by using the private key, reads the quality event of the relevant authorized business node, performs casual inspection to it, and keeps the ID, the supervision-result information, the digital signature and the timestamp of the quality event into the blockchain distributed ledger, thereby completing the loop-locked blockchain distributed bookkeeping of all the participating parts in the quality tracing (the information of the business parties and the information of the supervising party).
