M2M Communication in Virtual Sensor Network for SHAAL
Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication has led to a new paradigm of Internet of Things (IoT). The
future of M2M communication in smart home lies in the aggregation and allocation of resources and
service provisioning of diverse applications using different radio technologies. M2M communication may
operate on the virtual sensor network to provide independent applications running on heterogeneous
network simultaneously. M2M is going to play a major role in the area of Smart Home and Ambient
Assisted Living (SHAAL) providing assistance to the elderly people with smart sensors that monitor the
home environment and provides aid health monitoring to human requiring medical assistance.
The current state of the art frameworks are dedicated to specific applications with the support of single
radio network with limited service provisioning options. However, in order to fully exploit the resources
in this paper we present a service provisioning framework realization of M2M in virtual sensor network
for SHAAL, which allows independent parties to work together in a secure and reliable manner. In
addition to this, the framework is designed to include benefits of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)
and Resource Oriented Architecture (ROA) along with the use of different low power, low data rate
protocols. A middleware is used as a platform to link the underlying virtual networks with various
applications. The network virtualization approach is adopted to design an efficient middleware framework
that can effectively discover and manage the underlying network resources and provide services at home
gateway. The framework will be used as the basis for the development of the SHAAL networked system

Towards a Security, Privacy, Dependability, Interoperability Framework for the Internet of Things
A popular application of ambient intelligence systems constitutes of assisting living services on smart buildings. As intelligence is imported in embedded equipment, the system becomes able to provide smart services (e.g. control lights, airconditioning, provide energy management services etc.). IoT is the main enabler of such environments. However, the interconnection of these cyber-physical systems and the processing of personal data raise serious security and privacy issues. In this paper we present a framework that can guarantee Security, Privacy, Dependability and Interoperability (SPDI) in IoT. Taking advantage of the underlying IoT deployment, the proposed framework not only implements the requested smart functionality but also provide modelling and administration that can guarantee those SPDI properties. Moreover, we provide an application example of the framework in a smart building scenario
