Abstract

Due to policies and laws changes and territorial legal protections expansion, researchers have encountered obstacles to collaborate with other researchers in other countries including regarding stakeholders’ satisfactions and the vague legal status. In the research, an attempt was made to analyze the required measures for removal of international scientific collaborations obstacles. The most important solution in this area so far were combining advanced technical tools such as smart contracts with the principles of property to reduce transaction costs which can be a good guidance practices to cooperation as much as possible between law, traditional solutions and technology to reduce transaction cost.
