A Novel Fog Computing Approach for Minimization of Latency in Healthcare using Machine Learning

In the recent scenario, the most challenging requirements are to handle the massive generation of multimedia data from the Internet of Things (IoT) devices which becomes very difficult to handle only through the cloud. Fog computing technology emerges as an intelligent solution and uses a distributed environment to operate. The objective of the paper is latency minimization in e-healthcare through fog computing. Therefore, in IoT multimedia data transmission, the parameters such as transmission delay, network delay, and computation delay must be reduced as there is a high demand for healthcare multimedia analytics. Fog computing provides processing, storage, and analyze the data nearer to IoT and end-users to overcome the latency. In this paper, the novel Intelligent Multimedia Data Segregation (IMDS) scheme using Machine learning (k-fold random forest) is proposed in the fog computing environment that segregates the multimedia data and the model used to calculate total latency (transmission, computation, and network). With the simulated results, we achieved 92% as the classification accuracy of the model, an approximately 95% reduction in latency as compared with the pre-existing model, and improved the quality of services in e-healthcare

Data Aggregation Scheme Using Multiple Mobile Agents in Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of large number of sensor nodes densely deployed in monitoring area with sensing, wireless communications and computing capabilities. In recent times, wireless sensor networks have used the concept of mobile agent for reducing energy consumption and for effective data collection. The fundamental functionality of WSN is to collect and return data from the sensor nodes. Data aggregation’s main goal is to gather and aggregate data in an efficient manner. In data gathering, finding the optimal itinerary planning for the mobile agent is an important step. However, a single mobile agent itinerary planning approach suffers from two drawbacks, task delay and large size of the mobile agent as the scale of the network is expanded. To overcome these drawbacks, this research work proposes: (i) an efficient data aggregation scheme in wireless sensor network that uses multiple mobile agents for aggregating data and transferring it to the sink based on itinerary planning and (ii) an attack detection using TS fuzzy model on multi-mobile agent-based data aggregation scheme is shortly named as MDTSF model
