Method and system for managing mutual distributed ledgers in a system of interconnected devices

Abstract

When a local server that is connected to a wireless local area network (WLAN) receives a service request from a first electronic device, the server identifies a resource to provide one or more elements of the service. The server assigns the resource to provide the service element(s). The local server also selects one or more mutual distributed ledgers (MDLs) having parameters that correspond to the service request. The local server generates and transmits, to a gateway server, a transaction record having a format that corresponds to the selected MDL. This enables the local server to facilitate the delivery of services such as spectrum sharing, content streaming, and the like using WLAN-connected devices to facilitate delivery of the service. It also enables the gateway server to update each selected MDL with a transaction ledger that follows each selected MDL's format.
