Abstract The fast integration of 5G communication, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Internet-of-Things (IoT) technologies is envisioned to enable Next Generation Networks (NGNs) for diverse smart services and user-defined applications for Smart Cities. However, it is still challenging to build a scalable and efficient infrastructure that satisfies the various performance, security, and management demands by heterogeneous IoT applications across multiple administrative domains. This paper presents a dynamic edge resource federation architecture, which integrates the concept of network slicing (NS) and blockchain to improve scalability, dynamicity, and security for multi-domain IoT applications. A NS-enabled dynamic edge resource federation framework adopts intelligent mechanisms to support efficient multi-domain service coordination that satisfies diverse Quality of Service (QoS) and security requirements. We propose a Hierarchical Integrated Federated Ledger (HIFL), which aims to guarantee decentralized security and privacy-preserving properties in multi-domain resource orchestration and service re-adjustment. As a secure-by-design solution, HIFL is promising to support efficient, trust and secured end-to-end IoT services. A preliminary proof-of-concept prototype has been implemented for comparing intra- and inter-domain performance expectations. © 2022 IEEE.
