A survey on subjecting electronic product code and non-ID objects to IP identification
Over the last decade, both research on the Internet of Things (IoT) and
real-world IoT applications have grown exponentially. The IoT provides us with
smarter cities, intelligent homes, and generally more comfortable lives.
However, the introduction of these devices has led to several new challenges
that must be addressed. One of the critical challenges facing interacting with
IoT devices is to address billions of devices (things) around the world,
including computers, tablets, smartphones, wearable devices, sensors, and
embedded computers, and so on. This article provides a survey on subjecting
Electronic Product Code and non-ID objects to IP identification for IoT
devices, including their advantages and disadvantages thereof. Different
metrics are here proposed and used for evaluating these methods. In particular,
the main methods are evaluated in terms of their: (i) computational overhead,
(ii) scalability, (iii) adaptability, (iv) implementation cost, and (v) whether
applicable to already ID-based objects and presented in tabular format.
Finally, the article proves that this field of research will still be ongoing,
but any new technique must favorably offer the mentioned five evaluative
parameters.Comment: 112 references, 8 figures, 6 tables, Journal of Engineering Reports,

The Road Ahead for Networking: A Survey on ICN-IP Coexistence Solutions
In recent years, the current Internet has experienced an unexpected paradigm
shift in the usage model, which has pushed researchers towards the design of
the Information-Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm as a possible replacement of
the existing architecture. Even though both Academia and Industry have
investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of ICN, achieving the complete
replacement of the Internet Protocol (IP) is a challenging task.
Some research groups have already addressed the coexistence by designing
their own architectures, but none of those is the final solution to move
towards the future Internet considering the unaltered state of the networking.
To design such architecture, the research community needs now a comprehensive
overview of the existing solutions that have so far addressed the coexistence.
The purpose of this paper is to reach this goal by providing the first
comprehensive survey and classification of the coexistence architectures
according to their features (i.e., deployment approach, deployment scenarios,
addressed coexistence requirements and architecture or technology used) and
evaluation parameters (i.e., challenges emerging during the deployment and the
runtime behaviour of an architecture). We believe that this paper will finally
fill the gap required for moving towards the design of the final coexistence
architecture.Comment: 23 pages, 16 figures, 3 table
IOT future in Edge Computing
With the advent of Internet of Things (IoT) and data convergence using rich cloud services, data computing has been pushed to new horizons. However, much of the data generated at the edge of the network leading to the requirement of high response time. A new computing paradigm, edge computing, processing the data at the edge of the network is the need of the time. In this paper, we discuss the IoT architecture, predominant application protocols, definition of edge computing and its research opportunities

Segurança e privacidade em terminologia de rede
Security and Privacy are now at the forefront of modern concerns, and drive
a significant part of the debate on digital society. One particular aspect that
holds significant bearing in these two topics is the naming of resources in the
network, because it directly impacts how networks work, but also affects how
security mechanisms are implemented and what are the privacy implications
of metadata disclosure. This issue is further exacerbated by interoperability
mechanisms that imply this information is increasingly available regardless of
the intended scope.
This work focuses on the implications of naming with regards to security and
privacy in namespaces used in network protocols. In particular on the imple-
mentation of solutions that provide additional security through naming policies
or increase privacy. To achieve this, different techniques are used to either
embed security information in existing namespaces or to minimise privacy ex-
posure. The former allows bootstraping secure transport protocols on top of
insecure discovery protocols, while the later introduces privacy policies as part
of name assignment and resolution.
The main vehicle for implementation of these solutions are general purpose
protocols and services, however there is a strong parallel with ongoing re-
search topics that leverage name resolution systems for interoperability such
as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Information Centric Networks (ICN), where
these approaches are also applicable.Segurança e Privacidade são dois topicos que marcam a agenda na discus-
são sobre a sociedade digital. Um aspecto particularmente subtil nesta dis-
cussão é a forma como atribuímos nomes a recursos na rede, uma escolha
com consequências práticas no funcionamento dos diferentes protocols de
rede, na forma como se implementam diferentes mecanismos de segurança
e na privacidade das várias partes envolvidas. Este problema torna-se ainda
mais significativo quando se considera que, para promover a interoperabili-
dade entre diferentes redes, mecanismos autónomos tornam esta informação
acessível em contextos que vão para lá do que era pretendido.
Esta tese foca-se nas consequências de diferentes políticas de atribuição de
nomes no contexto de diferentes protocols de rede, para efeitos de segurança
e privacidade. Com base no estudo deste problema, são propostas soluções
que, através de diferentes políticas de atribuição de nomes, permitem introdu-
zir mecanismos de segurança adicionais ou mitigar problemas de privacidade
em diferentes protocolos. Isto resulta na implementação de mecanismos de
segurança sobre protocolos de descoberta inseguros, assim como na intro-
dução de mecanismos de atribuiçao e resolução de nomes que se focam na
protecçao da privacidade.
O principal veículo para a implementação destas soluções é através de ser-
viços e protocolos de rede de uso geral. No entanto, a aplicabilidade destas
soluções extende-se também a outros tópicos de investigação que recorrem
a mecanismos de resolução de nomes para implementar soluções de intero-
perabilidade, nomedamente a Internet das Coisas (IoT) e redes centradas na
informação (ICN).Programa Doutoral em Informátic
