ISO/TC 307/WG 6 - Use cases

This document uses a set of models that describe the flows of different types of data between distributed ledger technologies (DLT) and related systems, as well as between different DLT nodes. It provides a descriptive analysis of data flows in the development of use cases, as well as the basis for understanding the characteristics of DLT data flows, to support DLT application design and system analysis. The models referenced are in accordance with ISO 23257 and the use case analysis approach provided in ISO/TR 3242.

This document lists use cases that summarise common capabilities and usage patterns for attributes of distributed ledger technologies including the blockchain in order to help standards and technology development. This document includes use cases reflecting a range of industry sectors, processes and specific applications. This document can inform decision-makers considering or involved in applying these new technologies, including business, academia, government, technical and standards bodies.
