Autonomic computing architecture for SCADA cyber security
Cognitive computing relates to intelligent computing platforms that are based on the disciplines of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and other innovative technologies. These technologies can be used to design systems that mimic the human brain to learn about their environment and can autonomously predict an impending anomalous situation. IBM first used the term âAutonomic Computingâ in 2001 to combat the looming complexity crisis (Ganek and Corbi, 2003). The concept has been inspired by the human biological autonomic system. An autonomic system is self-healing, self-regulating, self-optimising and self-protecting (Ganek and Corbi, 2003). Therefore, the system should be able to protect itself against both malicious attacks and unintended mistakes by the operator
Autonomic Wireless Sensor Networks: A Systematic Literature Review
Autonomic computing (AC) is a promising approach to meet basic requirements in the design of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), and its principles can be applied to efficiently manage nodes operation and optimize network resources. Middleware for WSNs supports the implementation and basic operation of such networks. In this systematic literature review (SLR) we aim to provide an overview of existing WSN middleware systems that address autonomic properties. The main goal is to identify which development approaches of AC are used for designing WSN middleware system, which allow the self-management of WSN. Another goal is finding out which interactions and behavior can be automated in WSN components. We drew the following main conclusions from the SLR results: (i) the selected studies address WSN concerns according to the self-* properties of AC, namely, self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, and self-protection; (ii) the selected studies use different approaches for managing the dynamic behavior of middleware systems for WSN, such as policy-based reasoning, context-based reasoning, feedback control loops, mobile agents, model transformations, and code generation. Finally, we identified a lack of comprehensive system architecture designs that support the autonomy of sensor networking
Internet of robotic things : converging sensing/actuating, hypoconnectivity, artificial intelligence and IoT Platforms
The Internet of Things (IoT) concept is evolving rapidly and influencing newdevelopments in various application domains, such as the Internet of MobileThings (IoMT), Autonomous Internet of Things (A-IoT), Autonomous Systemof Things (ASoT), Internet of Autonomous Things (IoAT), Internetof Things Clouds (IoT-C) and the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT) etc.that are progressing/advancing by using IoT technology. The IoT influencerepresents new development and deployment challenges in different areassuch as seamless platform integration, context based cognitive network integration,new mobile sensor/actuator network paradigms, things identification(addressing, naming in IoT) and dynamic things discoverability and manyothers. The IoRT represents new convergence challenges and their need to be addressed, in one side the programmability and the communication ofmultiple heterogeneous mobile/autonomous/robotic things for cooperating,their coordination, configuration, exchange of information, security, safetyand protection. Developments in IoT heterogeneous parallel processing/communication and dynamic systems based on parallelism and concurrencyrequire new ideas for integrating the intelligent âdevicesâ, collaborativerobots (COBOTS), into IoT applications. Dynamic maintainability, selfhealing,self-repair of resources, changing resource state, (re-) configurationand context based IoT systems for service implementation and integrationwith IoT network service composition are of paramount importance whennew âcognitive devicesâ are becoming active participants in IoT applications.This chapter aims to be an overview of the IoRT concept, technologies,architectures and applications and to provide a comprehensive coverage offuture challenges, developments and applications
Towards a Cognitive Compute Continuum: An Architecture for Ad-Hoc Self-Managed Swarms
In this paper we introduce our vision of a Cognitive Computing Continuum to
address the changing IT service provisioning towards a distributed,
opportunistic, self-managed collaboration between heterogeneous devices outside
the traditional data center boundaries. The focal point of this continuum are
cognitive devices, which have to make decisions autonomously using their
on-board computation and storage capacity based on information sensed from
their environment. Such devices are moving and cannot rely on fixed
infrastructure elements, but instead realise on-the-fly networking and thus
frequently join and leave temporal swarms. All this creates novel demands for
the underlying architecture and resource management, which must bridge the gap
from edge to cloud environments, while keeping the QoS parameters within
required boundaries. The paper presents an initial architecture and a resource
management framework for the implementation of this type of IT service
provisioning.Comment: 8 pages, CCGrid 2021 Cloud2Things Worksho
Autonomic Cloud Computing: A Review
The wide acceptability of cloud computing and its adoption, though remarkable, also gave the technology its greatest challenge in 'user expectation'. These challenges include; Reliability and availability, integration and interoperability, scalability, virtual machine migration policies, failure prediction, and resource management. In this paper, a general review of cloud computing was done highlighting its challenges. Autonomic Cloud computing was also reviewed. Future research areas were identified
