Rogue Device Mitigation in the Internet of Things: A Blockchain-Based Access Control Approach

Figure 6

An illustration of a Lorenz curve-based Gini coefficient for quantifying the degree of decentralization of miners in a blockchain. The x-axis represents the increasing number of miners while the y-axis represents the increasing computing power. The Lorenz curve here represents how well the computing power is divided among miners. The line of ideal decentralization is realized when all of the miners have an equal share of computing resources.
