A Self-Configuration Controller To Detect, Identify, and Recover Misconfiguration At IoT Edge Devices and Containerized Cluster System

Source at https://icissp.scitevents.org/.Securing workloads and information flow against misconfiguration in container-based clusters and edge medical devices is an important part of overall system security. This paper presented a controller that analyzes the misconfiguration, maps the observation to its hidden misconfiguration type, and selects the optimal recovery policy to maximize the performance of defined metrics. In the future, we will integrate streaming from different edge devices, expand the recovery mechanism, and conduct more experiments

Emergent situations for smart cities: A survey

A smart city is a community that uses communication and information technology to improve sustainability, livability, and feasibility. As any community, there are always unexpected emergencies, which must be treated to preserve the regular order. However, a smart system is needed to be able to respond effectively to these emergent situations. The contribution made in this survey is twofold. Firstly, it provides a comprehensive exhaustive and categorized overview of the existing surveys for smart cities.  The categorization is based on several criteria such as structures, benefits, advantages, applications, challenges, issues, and future directions. Secondly, it aims to analyze several studies with respect to emergent situations and management to smart cities. The analysis is based on several factors such as the challenges and issues discussed, the solutions proposed, and opportunities for future research. The challenges include security, privacy, reliability, performance, scalability, heterogeneity, scheduling, resource management, and latency. Few studies have investigated the emergent situations of smart cities and despite the importance of latency factor for smart city applications, it is rarely discussed
