Recently, a wide range of small devices, such as Wi-Fi Internet of things development boards, which are a kind of the microcontroller units in a general purpose board, are interrelated throughout the planet. In addition, certain microcontroller units interact inside our homes when turning lights on or detecting movements, measuring various parameters, such as gas concentrations, [Formula: see text], humidity, and the temperature inside a room, or adjusting the intensity of the lights inside and outside of the house. Likewise, there is a great diversity of microcontroller units, ranging from smart cellular telephones or reduced general purpose devices, ESP8266 or RaspberryPi3 to any type of Internet of things devices. Therefore, the general way of connecting the microcontroller units to the Internet is through hub nodes, so that the information can be propagated and shared among them. The main purpose of this article is to yield an adaptive reconfiguration algorithm to link all the sensor nodes (microcontroller units) of a network based on the fractal topology, avoiding the use of hub nodes, in order for the microcontroller units to share all the parameters established in the Internet of things network only through two adjacent sensor nodes as long as any sensor node in the network knows all the parameters of the other ones, even if the sensor nodes are not adjacent. To achieve the above, in this work, an Internet of things network was built based on the Hilbert fractal for being a filling-space curve yielded from the L-systems paradigm, so this fractal Hilbert topology allows access to the entire Internet of things network in a dynamic way, and it is possible to reconfigure the network topology when a new sensor node is attached by applying artificial intelligence to intelligent and dynamic environments.

A wireless sensor network (WSN) is one of the core technologies of the Internet of things. It is an important means to realize a real-time geographic information system. Related research has shown that in the future, tens of billions of sensors and intelligent terminal equipment will be connected to WSNs based on the establishment of the function of the Internet of things. This study presents a heuristic algorithm to balance the energy consumption of each sensor node. It proposes a new real-time dynamic allocation algorithm for sensor tasks based on the concept of this heuristic algorithm and by considering that a multisensory system is composed of a phased-array radar. This allocation algorithm can dynamically assign tasks to the most suitable sensor before tasks fail to arrive, which ensures that the sensor can achieve a good load balance and extend network lifetime. A simulation experiment is conducted, and results validate the proposed algorithm. The energy consumption of mobile sensor nodes is effectively balanced. The path-planning algorithm standardizes the energy consumption of each mobile sensor node across the network , thereby effectively prolonging network lifetime.

In recent years, significant research and development efforts have been made to transform the Internet of Things (IoT) from a futuristic vision to reality. The IoT is expected to deliver huge economic benefits through improved infrastructure and productivity in almost all sectors. At the core of the IoT are the distributed sensing devices or sensor nodes that collect and communicate information about physical entities in the environment. These sensing platforms have traditionally been developed around off-the-shelf microcontrollers. Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) have been used in some of the recent sensor nodes due to their inherent flexibility and high processing capability. FPGAs can be exploited to huge advantage because the sensor nodes can be configured to adapt their functionality and performance to changing requirements. In this paper, FlexiS, a high performance and flexible sensor node platform based on FPGA, is presented. Test results show that FlexiS is suitable for data and computation intensive applications in wireless sensor networks because it offers high performance with low energy profile, easy integration of multiple types of sensors, and flexibility. This type of sensing platforms will therefore be suitable for the distributed data analysis and decision-making capabilities the emerging IoT applications require.

This article presents the problems of powering wireless sensor networks operating in the structures of the Internet of Things (IoT). This issue was discussed on the example of a universal end node in IoT technology containing RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags. The basic methods of signal transmission in these types of networks are discussed and their impact on the basic requirements such as range, transmission speed, low energy consumption, and the maximum number of devices that can simultaneously operate in the network. The issue of low power consumption of devices used in IoT solutions is one of the main research objects. The analysis of possible communication protocols has shown that there is a possibility of effective optimization in this area. The wide range of power sources available on the market, used in nodes of wireless sensor networks, was compared. The alternative possibilities of powering the network nodes from Energy Harvesting (EH) generators are presented.

Internet of Things (IoT) facilitates a wide range of applications through sensor-based connected devices that require bandwidth and other network resources. Enhancement of efficient utilization of a heterogeneous IoT network is an open optimization problem that is mostly suffered by network flooding. Redundant, unwanted, and flooded queries are major causes of inefficient utilization of resources. Several query control mechanisms in the literature claimed to cater to the issues related to bandwidth, cost, and Quality of Service (QoS). This research article presented a statistical performance evaluation of different query control mechanisms that addressed minimization of energy consumption, energy cost and network flooding. Specifically, it evaluated the performance measure of Query Control Mechanism (QCM) for QoS-enabled layered-based clustering for reactive flooding in the Internet of Things. By statistical means, this study inferred the significant achievement of the QCM algorithm that outperformed the prevailing algorithms, i.e., Divide-and-Conquer (DnC), Service Level Agreements (SLA), and Hybrid Energy-aware Clustering Protocol for IoT (Hy-IoT) for identification and elimination of redundant flooding queries. The inferential analysis for performance evaluation of algorithms was measured in terms of three scenarios, i.e., energy consumption, delays and throughput with different intervals of traffic, malicious mote and malicious mote with realistic condition. It is evident from the results that the QCM algorithm outperforms the existing algorithms and the statistical probability value “P” < 0.05 indicates the performance of QCM is significant at the 95% confidence interval. Hence, it could be inferred from findings that the performance of the QCM algorithm was substantial as compared to that of other algorithms.

In order to increase the management efficiency and decrease the maintenance costs in the traditional dust monitoring system, a novel real-time remote monitoring system using the Internet of Things and cloud server is proposed in this paper. The system includes several sensor nodes, a sink node and Cloud Server. The high-precision dust probe, temperature and humidity sensors, water flow sensors and hydrogen transmitters are integrated together into a sensor node to access the metal polished environmental information. Then, the collected information is transmitted to sink-node using the 2.4G wireless network. The sink-node uploads data to the Cloud Server through the 4G network and TCP Socket. Based on the Browser/Server (B/S) model, a remote monitoring system is developed by using Tencent Cloud Server, C# language, and SQL database. As a result, the on-site metal polishing environmental information is obtained via the App and Web page.
