The Historically Black Colleges and Universities - Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) provides support to strengthen STEM undergraduate education and research at HBCUs. To enhance its research capacity, Morgan State University will conduct planning activities to develop PI expertise in blockchain-based supply chain simulations and make improvements to the supply chain coordination mechanism. The research approach is based on mathematical programming in which costs are modeled and tested in a simulated environment. This planning project aligns with the goals of the HBCU-UP program in its efforts to bolster institutional capacity building for the purpose of enhancing STEM Undergraduate education and research endeavors. The objective of this project is to develop a blockchain-based supply chain simulation environment. During the project, a blockchain will be designed, set up, and deployed. Afterwards, a set of blockchain smart contracts that simulate delivery processes in a blockchain-based supply chain environment will be developed. The created blockchain-based supply chain simulation environment will mimic processes within a supply chain and, therefore, can be used for research and educational purposes. In research, the simulation environment will be a tool that can be used to test different blockchain-based models and concepts in supply chain management and other disciplines. In the classroom, the blockchain-based supply chain simulation environment can be used to explain to students blockchain technology and its applications in supply chain management and beyond.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

传统黑人学院和大学 - 本科生计划 (HBCU-UP) 为加强 HBCU 的 STEM 本科教育和研究提供支持。为了增强其研究能力，摩根州立大学将开展规划活动，以开发基于区块链的供应链模拟方面的PI专业知识，并改进供应链协调机制。研究方法基于数​​学规划，在模拟环境中对成本进行建模和测试。该规划项目与 HBCU-UP 项目的目标一致，即努力加强机构能力建设，以加强 STEM 本科教育和研究工作。该项目的目标是开发基于区块链的供应链模拟环境。在项目期间，将设计、设置和部署区块链。之后，将开发一套在基于区块链的供应链环境中模拟交付流程的区块链智能合约。创建的基于区块链的供应链模拟环境将模拟供应链内的流程，因此可用于研究和教育目的。在研究中，模拟环境将成为一种工具，可用于测试供应链管理和其他学科中不同的基于区块链的模型和概念。在课堂上，可以使用基于区块链的供应链模拟环境向学生解释区块链技术及其在供应链管理及其他领域的应用。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力评估进行评估，认为值得支持。优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
