When faulty nodes constitute less than 7 percent of the network, vFBAS may be a more efficient FBAS implementation than SCP. Environmental monitoring system with vFBAS applied are more likely to ensure uninterrupted collection of data and data integrity. ? 2021 IEEE.blockchaindistributed systemenvironmental monitoringFBASSCPBlockchainEnvironmental engineeringBlock-chainByzantine AgreementConsensus protocolsDistributed systemsEnvironmental MonitoringNovel methodologyStellar consensus protocolStellarsView-basedMonitoring[SDGs]SDG14conference paper10.1109/BRAINS52497.2021.95697862-s2.0-85118931382
