Decision models for blockchain

Based on the depth of understanding of blockchain technology and its impact on real-world problems, many researchers have proposed several decision models that will help to quickly assess the suitability of blockchain in any use case. These decision models consider all the fundamental principles of the blockchain and decide whether the use case is suitable to be implemented in a blockchain-based ecosystem.
