AES encryption of resource allocation for ultra-reliable and enhanced mobile broadband IoT applications in fog network

The cloud computing paradigm has evolved toward the edge in recent years in order to give improved Quality of Service (QoS) to Internet of Things (IoT) devices. However, because fog network technology's resource capacity is limited, it's critical to efficiently connect IoT applications with demanding QoS requirements to the available network infrastructure. We design a joint user association and resource allocation problem in the fog network's downlink in aforementioned research, taking into account the ever-increasing demand for QoS standards imposed by Ultra�Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) and Enhanced Mobile BroadBand (EMBB) services. First, we enforce the analytical framework using an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to assess the priority of different QoS requirements of heterogeneous IoT applications at the fog network. We then create a two-sided matching game using the AHP to establish a solid connection between the fog network architecture and IoT devices. We next encrypt the data using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) technique to safeguard it against theft and misus

Towards Tactile Internet in Beyond 5G Era: Recent Advances, Current Issues and Future Directions

Tactile Internet (TI) is envisioned to create a paradigm shift from the content-oriented communications to steer/control-based communications by enabling real-time transmission of haptic information (i.e., touch, actuation, motion, vibration, surface texture) over Internet in addition to the conventional audiovisual and data traffics. This emerging TI technology, also considered as the next evolution phase of Internet of Things (IoT), is expected to create numerous opportunities for technology markets in a wide variety of applications ranging from teleoperation systems and Augmented/Virtual Reality (AR/VR) to automotive safety and eHealthcare towards addressing the complex problems of human society. However, the realization of TI over wireless media in the upcoming Fifth Generation (5G) and beyond networks creates various non-conventional communication challenges and stringent requirements in terms of ultra-low latency, ultra-high reliability, high data-rate connectivity, resource allocation, multiple access and quality-latency-rate tradeoff. To this end, this paper aims to provide a holistic view on wireless TI along with a thorough review of the existing state-of-the-art, to identify and analyze the involved technical issues, to highlight potential solutions and to propose future research directions. First, starting with the vision of TI and recent advances and a review of related survey/overview articles, we present a generalized framework for wireless TI in the Beyond 5G Era including a TI architecture, the main technical requirements, the key application areas and potential enabling technologies. Subsequently, we provide a comprehensive review of the existing TI works by broadly categorizing them into three main paradigms; namely, haptic communications, wireless AR/VR, and autonomous, intelligent and cooperative mobility systems. Next, potential enabling technologies across physical/Medium Access Control (MAC) and network layers are identified and discussed in detail. Also, security and privacy issues of TI applications are discussed along with some promising enablers. Finally, we present some open research challenges and recommend promising future research directions
