Integrating Edge Computing and Software Defined Networking in Internet of Things: A Systematic Review
The Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed our interaction with the world by connecting devices, sensors, and systems to the Internet, enabling real-time monitoring, control, and automation in various applications such as smart cities, healthcare, transportation, homes, and grids. However, challenges related to latency, privacy, and bandwidth have arisen due to the massive influx of data generated by IoT devices and the limitations of traditional cloud-based architectures. Moreover, network management, interoperability, security, and scalability issues have emerged due to the rapid growth and heterogeneous nature of IoT devices. To overcome such problems, researchers proposed a new architecture called Software Defined Networking for Edge Computing in the Internet of Things (SDN-EC-IoT), which combines Edge Computing for the Internet of Things (EC-IoT) and Software Defined Internet of Things (SDIoT). Although researchers have studied EC-IoT and SDIoT as individual architectures, they have not yet addressed the combination of both, creating a significant gap in our understanding of SDN-EC-IoT. This paper aims to fill this gap by presenting a comprehensive review of how the SDN-EC-IoT paradigm can solve IoT challenges. To achieve this goal, this study conducted a literature review covering 74 articles published between 2019 and 2023. Finally, this paper identifies future research directions for SDN-EC-IoT, including the development of interoperability platforms, scalable architectures, low latency and Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees, efficient handling of big data, enhanced security and privacy, optimized energy consumption, resource-aware task offloading, and incorporation of machine learnin
A review on orchestration distributed systems for IoT smart services in fog computing
This paper provides a review of orchestration distributed systems for IoT smart services in fog computing. The cloud infrastructure alone cannot handle the flow of information with the abundance of data, devices and interactions. Thus, fog computing becomes a new paradigm to overcome the problem. One of the first challenges was to build the orchestration systems to activate the clouds and to execute tasks throughout the whole system that has to be considered to the situation in the large scale of geographical distance, heterogeneity and low latency to support the limitation of cloud computing. Some problems exist for orchestration distributed in fog computing are to fulfil with high reliability and low-delay requirements in the IoT applications system and to form a larger computer network like a fog network, at different geographic sites. This paper reviewed approximately 68 articles on orchestration distributed system for fog computing. The result shows the orchestration distribute system and some of the evaluation criteria for fog computing that have been compared in terms of Borg, Kubernetes, Swarm, Mesos, Aurora, heterogeneity, QoS management, scalability, mobility, federation, and interoperability. The significance of this study is to support the researcher in developing orchestration distributed systems for IoT smart services in fog computing focus on IR4.0 national agend
Integration and characterisation of the performance of fifth-generation mobile technology (5g) connectivity over the University of Oulu 5g test network (5gtn) for cognitive edge node based on fractal edge platform
Abstract. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in cognitive edge nodes, which are intelligent devices that can collect and process data at the edge of the network. These nodes are becoming increasingly important for various applications such as smart cities, industrial automation, and healthcare. However, implementing cognitive edge nodes requires a reliable and efficient communication network. Therefore, this thesis assesses the performance of direct cellular (5G) and IEEE 802.11-based Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) technology for three network architectures, which has the potential to offer low-latency, high-throughput and energy-efficient communication, for cognitive edge nodes.
The study focused on evaluating the network performance metrics of throughput, latency, and power consumption for three different FRACTAL-based network architectures. These architectures include IEEE 802.11-based last mile, direct cellular (5G) backbone, and IEEE 802.11-based last mile over cellular (5G) backbone topologies. This research aims to provide insights into the performance of 5G technology for cognitive edge nodes.
The findings suggest that the power consumption of IEEE 802.11-enabled nodes was only slightly higher than the reference case, indicating that it is more energy-efficient than 5G-enabled nodes. Additionally, in terms of latency, IEEE 802.11 technology may be more favourable. The throughput tests revealed that the cellular (5G) connection exhibited high throughput for communication between a test node and an upper-tier node situated either on the internet or at the network edge. In addition, it was found that the FRACTAL edge platform is flexible and scalable, and it supports different wireless technologies, making it a suitable platform for implementing cognitive edge nodes.
Overall, this study provides insights into the potential of 5G technology and the FRACTAL edge platform for implementing cognitive edge nodes. The results of this research can be valuable for researchers and practitioners working in the field of wireless communication and edge computing, as it sheds light on the feasibility and performance of these technologies for implementing cognitive edge nodes in various applications
Navigating the IoT landscape: Unraveling forensics, security issues, applications, research challenges, and future
Given the exponential expansion of the internet, the possibilities of
security attacks and cybercrimes have increased accordingly. However, poorly
implemented security mechanisms in the Internet of Things (IoT) devices make
them susceptible to cyberattacks, which can directly affect users. IoT
forensics is thus needed for investigating and mitigating such attacks. While
many works have examined IoT applications and challenges, only a few have
focused on both the forensic and security issues in IoT. Therefore, this paper
reviews forensic and security issues associated with IoT in different fields.
Future prospects and challenges in IoT research and development are also
highlighted. As demonstrated in the literature, most IoT devices are vulnerable
to attacks due to a lack of standardized security measures. Unauthorized users
could get access, compromise data, and even benefit from control of critical
infrastructure. To fulfil the security-conscious needs of consumers, IoT can be
used to develop a smart home system by designing a FLIP-based system that is
highly scalable and adaptable. Utilizing a blockchain-based authentication
mechanism with a multi-chain structure can provide additional security
protection between different trust domains. Deep learning can be utilized to
develop a network forensics framework with a high-performing system for
detecting and tracking cyberattack incidents. Moreover, researchers should
consider limiting the amount of data created and delivered when using big data
to develop IoT-based smart systems. The findings of this review will stimulate
academics to seek potential solutions for the identified issues, thereby
advancing the IoT field.Comment: 77 pages, 5 figures, 5 table
