Apple iPhones do not use the standardized micro-Universal Serial Bus (USB) port but specialized ports for their proprietary Lightning connectors. However, in October 2018, Apple’s vice-president of hardware engineering John Ternus announced the switch to USB-C for the new generation of iPads from 2019. Apple iPhone is expected to follow suit. This marks the end to a long battle over port standardization for personal computers within the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The change came about due to a push from the European Commission for industry to agree on a universally proprietary free standard. This chapter documents how states have been increasingly involved in steering intellectual property rights (IPR) policies within standards-developing organization (SDO) fora. Civil society too has had a role to play from the stance of open source solutions to interoperability, albeit with less and varying degrees of success across the fora. The chapter focuses on how state pressure has counterbalanced historic corporate pressure for preserving patent protection.

With the purpose to stimulate the technical development and to seek the new growth points in economy, governments of different countries attach great importance to the technical programming of the new generation, giving priority to the internet of things. It is also stated in the twelfth five-year-plan outline for national economic and social development of the People's Republic of China that the national infrastructure should develop with the safety of broadband blending to push the application of the internet of things.

The Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure forms a gigantic network of interconnected and interacting devices. This infrastructure involves a new generation of service delivery models, more advanced data management and policy schemes, sophisticated data analytics tools, and effective decision making applications. IoT technology brings automation to a new level wherein nodes can communicate and make autonomous decisions in the absence of human interventions. IoT enabled solutions generate and process enormous volumes of heterogeneous data exchanged among billions of nodes. This results in Big Data congestion, data management, storage issues and various inefficiencies. Fog Computing aims at solving the issues with data management as it includes intelligent computational components and storage closer to the data sources.

Blockchains are shared, immutable ledgers for recording the history of transactions. They substitute a new generation of transactional applications that establish trust, accountability, and transparency. It enables contract partners to secure a deal without involving a trusted third party. The internet of things (IoT) is rapidly changing our society to a world where every “thing” is connected to the internet, making computing pervasive like never before. It is increasingly becoming a ubiquitous computing service, requiring huge volumes of data storage and processing. The stable growth of the internet of things (IoT) and the blockchain technology popularized by cryptocurrencies has led to efforts to change the centralized nature of the IoT. Adapting the blockchain technology for use in the IoT is one such efforts. This chapter focuses on blockchain-IoT research directions and to provide an overview of the importance of blockchain-based solutions for cloud data manipulation in IoT.

Technologically speaking, humanity lives in an age of evolution, prosperity, and great development, as a new generation of the Internet has emerged; it is the Internet of Things (IoT) which controls all aspects of lives, from the different devices of the home to the large industries. Despite the tremendous benefits offered by IoT, still there are some challenges regarding privacy and information security. The traditional techniques used in Malware Anomaly Detection Systems (MADS) could not give us as robust protection as we need in IoT environments. Therefore, it needed to be replaced with Deep Learning (DL) techniques to improve the MADS and provide the intelligence solutions to protect against malware, attacks, and intrusions, in order to preserve the privacy of users and increase their confidence in and dependence on IoT systems. This research presents a comprehensive study on security solutions in IoT applications, Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), Malware Detection Systems (MDS), and the role of artificial intelligent (AI) in improving security in IoT.

The combination of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud computing are both popular applications that are based on the Internet. However, the traditional networking structure can no longer support the transmission of the huge number of packets required by cloud computing and IoT. Therefore, a new-generation architecture, software-defined networking (SDN), came into being. The new-generation SDN can control routing through software, making flexible and convenient management a key feature of SDN. However, attacks and threats are prevalent in today’s networking environment. When an SDN controller encounters a hacker attack or virus infection, it will not function properly. Hence, we need to design a fault-tolerant mechanism for the above environment. In this paper, a fault-tolerant consensus protocol is proposed to improve the fault tolerance of SDNs with multiple controllers.

Internet of things is a worldwide network which based on mass micro-devices, using the new generation as the backbone, and will be used in traditional and emerging industries. The possibility of seamlessly merging the real and the virtual world, through the massive deployment of embedded devices, opens up new exciting directions for both research and business. In this survey article, we provided an overview of the key issues such as security problems related to the development of IoT technologies and services.
