For example, we are working with Siemens on a tariff negotiation project based on smart contracts whose conditions change according to the environment. One of our latest experimental projects is also based on this technology, with a solution that facilitates check-in. HRS registers travellers and their booking information. Hotel staff then receive a link by email directing them to a portal where they can check the customer's personal details in order to proceed with check-in, while ensuring that the traveller is charged the correct rate. \"<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"seriesmeta\">Article 7 of 8 in this dossier <a
