Reliable data delivery in ICN-IoT environments

COPSS-lite: Lightweight ICN Based Pub/Sub for IoT Environments

Information Centric Networking (ICN) is a new networking paradigm that treats content as the first class entity. It provides content to users without regards to the current location or source of the content. The publish/subscribe (pub/sub) systems have gained popularity in Internet. Pub/sub systems dismisses the need for users to request every content of their interest. Instead, the content is ...

Efficient IoT Application Delivery and Management in Smart City Environments

The smart city concept initially emerged as an umbrella term for the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in cities with the goal of delivering additional services to their citizens and generally becoming more efficient in terms of resource utilization. Traditionally, these resources were mainly limited to energy and mobility systems. However, with the evolution and ubiquitous ...

Reliable Delivery of Event Data from Sensors to Actuators in Pervasive Computing Environments

The event-condition-action (ECA) paradigm holds enormous potential in pervasive computing environments. However, the problem of reliable delivery of event data, generated by low capability sensor devices, to more capable processing points and vice versa, needs to be addressed for the success of the ECA paradigm in this environment. The problem becomes interesting because strong cryptographic te...

Protecting Data Security in Smart Internet-of- Things (IoT) Environments

Internet of Things (IoT) are making our environment smarter. In an office building, tens of thousands of sensors may be installed to monitor electricity, lighting, temperature, humidity, and other environmental parameters (Figure 1). In an industrial facility, even more sensors and actuators may be used to monitor and control the equipment, processes and products. Furthermore, our homes and veh...
