The Internet-of-Things (IoT) is unanimously identified as one of the main pillars of future smart scenarios. The potential of IoT technologies and deployments has been already demonstrated in a number of different application areas, including transport, energy, safety and healthcare. However, despite the growing number of IoT deployments, the majority of IoT applications tend to be self-contain...

The Internet of Things (IoT) gets real. Already today, there are more connected devices than humans. In order to leverage this trend platforms are required to enable building and operating of applications. In contrary, there is hardly any systematic research available that evaluates the capabilities of existing IoT platforms. This paper contributes to the understanding of the current IoT platfo...

We analyze the increasing threats against IoT devices. We show that Telnet-based attacks that target IoT devices have rocketed since 2014. Based on this observation, we propose an IoT honeypot and sandbox, which attracts and analyzes Telnet-based attacks against various IoT devices running on different CPU architectures such as ARM, MIPS, and PPC. By analyzing the observation results of our hon...

The BIG IoT project focuses on easy integration of the IoT data and services offered by existing IoT platforms and services based on semantic technologies. To enable IoT applications to consume data and services provided by heterogeneous systems and different stakeholders, a common set of ontologies and an RDF triple store with querying functionalities are used in the service discovery phase. T...

The IoT plays an important role in healthcare applications, from managing chronic diseases at one end of the spectrum to preventing disease at the other. IoT devices can be used to enable remote health monitoring and emergency notification systems. IoT aims to provide means to access and control all kinds of ubiquitous and uniquely identifiable devices, facilities and assets. In this paper we d...

This paper proposes an Internet of Things (IoT) middleware called Middleware for Cooperative Interaction of Things (MinT). MinT supports a fully distributed IoT environment in which IoT devices directly connect to peripheral devices easily construct a local or global network, and share their data in an energy efficient manner. MinT provides a sensor abstract layer, a system layer and an interac...

In this paper we survey trust computation models for Internet of things (IoT) systems for the purpose of service management, i.e., whether or not to select an IoT device as a service provider. Future IoT systems will connect the physical world into cyberspace everywhere and everything via billions of smart objects, and are expected to have a high economic impact. To date there is little work on...

The recent development of communication devices and wireless network technologies continues to advance the new era of the Internet and telecommunications. The various “things”, which include not only communication devices but also every other physical object on the planet, are also going to be connected to the Internet, and controlled through wireless networks. This concept, which is referred t...

The Internet of Things (IoT) emerged with the potential to change our daily lives and the way we interact and operate with our environment. However, in practice, IoT mixes a multitude of devices and subsystems, which are required to work together to provide the user with the expected quality of service. This leads to considerable development challenges, which are exacerbated by the speed of dev...

“Everything that is connected to the internet is alive”, is going to be the new rule for future. Future is Internet of Things (IoT), we are moving towards it with rapid pace. Often to the way humans use internet, now onwards devices will be the main users of IoT ecosystem [3]. Recent research deeds capitalizing on the state of the art technologies to build a scalable IoT [4]. However, the compr...
