Abstract

Abstract

Smart contracts based on Ethereum have been widely used across various fields. The programming of smart contracts, however, requires professional developers with expertise in a special programming language; in other words, the developers must have professional domain knowledge in addition to programming ability. In this paper, a method for the automated generation of smart contracts for specific domains is proposed with the aim addressing the programming friendliness of smart contracts. The paper introduces cluster analysis of smart contracts and establishes the basic functional code for transactional type smart contracts. MFC is used to link the generated code with UI control and provide users with a friendly smart contract programming page; hence, the automatic generation of smart contracts is realized, thereby reducing the difficulty and cost of contract programming. Finally, a case study is presented to verify the availability of the generated smart contract.
