Abstract Smart Cities currently utilize computational solutions to enhance the quality of life for their citizens. However, these systems can be complex to integrate as they are often isolated, heterogeneous, and maintained by distinct organizations at different activity levels. The System of System (SoS) concept is one way to promote interoperability. SoS is a collection of several isolated systems that act interoperably as part of a more extensive and intricate system, forming a cohesive and complex entity. Smart cities can benefit by using SoS to integrate services and develop new features. However, SoS has some limitations, such as increased costs, limited collaboration, and mistrust of shared data and functionalities. Blockchain technology can be used to establish a trusted decentralized controller entity through a consensus mechanism among network participants to overcome these challenges. Therefore, this paper presents an architecture that combines Blockchain with SoS theory to enable trusted interoperability among Smart Cities systems. Finally, we conduct a stress test to evaluate the proposed solution. © 2023 IEEE.
