Knowledge-infused and Consistent Complex Event Processing over Real-time and Persistent Streams
Emerging applications in Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems
(CPS) present novel challenges to Big Data platforms for performing online
analytics. Ubiquitous sensors from IoT deployments are able to generate data
streams at high velocity, that include information from a variety of domains,
and accumulate to large volumes on disk. Complex Event Processing (CEP) is
recognized as an important real-time computing paradigm for analyzing
continuous data streams. However, existing work on CEP is largely limited to
relational query processing, exposing two distinctive gaps for query
specification and execution: (1) infusing the relational query model with
higher level knowledge semantics, and (2) seamless query evaluation across
temporal spaces that span past, present and future events. These allow
accessible analytics over data streams having properties from different
disciplines, and help span the velocity (real-time) and volume (persistent)
dimensions. In this article, we introduce a Knowledge-infused CEP (X-CEP)
framework that provides domain-aware knowledge query constructs along with
temporal operators that allow end-to-end queries to span across real-time and
persistent streams. We translate this query model to efficient query execution
over online and offline data streams, proposing several optimizations to
mitigate the overheads introduced by evaluating semantic predicates and in
accessing high-volume historic data streams. The proposed X-CEP query model and
execution approaches are implemented in our prototype semantic CEP engine,
SCEPter. We validate our query model using domain-aware CEP queries from a
real-world Smart Power Grid application, and experimentally analyze the
benefits of our optimizations for executing these queries, using event streams
from a campus-microgrid IoT deployment.Comment: 34 pages, 16 figures, accepted in Future Generation Computer Systems,

Secure store and forward proxy for dynamic IoT applications over M2M networks
Internet of Things (IoT) applications are expected to generate a huge unforeseen amount of traffic flowing from Consumer Electronics devices to the network. In order to overcome existing interoperability problems, several standardization bodies have joined to bring a new generation of Machine to Machine (M2M) networks as a result of the evolution of wireless sensor/actor networks and mobile cellular networks to converged networks. M2M is expected to enable IoT paradigms and related concepts into a reality at a reasonable cost. As part of the convergence, several technologies preventing new IoT services to interfere with existing Internet services are flourishing. Responsive, message-driven, resilient and elastic architectures are becoming essential parts of the system. These architectures will control the entire data flow for an IoT system requiring sometimes to store, shape and forward data among nodes of a M2M network to improve network performance. However, IoT generated data have an important personal component since it is generated in personal devices or are the result of the observation of the physical world, so rises significant security concerns. This article proposes a novel opportunistic flexible secure store and forward proxy for M2M networks and its mapping to asynchronous protocols that guarantees data confidentiality
