With the inception of the Internet of Things (IoT), wireless technology found a new outlook where the physical objects can interact with each other and can sense the environment. The IoT has found its way in the real world and has connected billions of devices throughout the world. However, its limitations, such as limited processing capability, storage capability, security and privacy issues, and energy constraints prevent the IoT system to be properly utilized by the real-world applications. Hence, the integration of IoT with various emerging technologies like big data, software defined networks, machine learning, fog computing, sensor cloud, etc., will make the IoT system a more powerful technology. The sensor cloud provides an open, secure, flexible, large storage and a computational capable infrastructure which makes the ensemble architecture of IoT and sensor cloud more efficient. An extensive review of the IoT system enabled sensor cloud is presented in the paper, and with this context, the paper attempts to summarize the sensor cloud infrastructure along with its challenges. In addition, the paper presents the possible integrated architecture of the IoT and the sensor cloud which enables the network to be properly utilized. Further, the importance of integrating these two promising technologies and research challenges associated with it is also identified. Finally, the paper analyses and discusses the motivation behind the ensemble system along with future research direction.

Internet of things (IoT) is an emerging concept which aims to connect billions of devices with each other anytime regardless of their location. Sadly, these IoT devices do not have enough computing resources to process huge amount of data. Therefore, Cloud computing is relied on to provide these resources. However, cloud computing based architecture fails in applications that demand very low and predictable latency, therefore the need for fog computing which is a new paradigm that is regarded as an extension of cloud computing to provide services between end users and the cloud user. Unfortunately, Fog-IoT is confronted with various security and privacy risks and prone to several cyberattacks which is a serious challenge. The purpose of this work is to present security and privacy threats towards Fog-IoT platform and discuss the security and privacy requirements in fog computing. We then proceed to propose an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) model using Standard Deep Neural Network's Back Propagation algorithm (BPDNN) to mitigate intrusions that attack Fog-IoT platform. The experimental Dataset for the proposed model is obtained from the Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity 2017 Dataset. Each instance of the attack in the dataset is separated into separate files, which are DoS (Denial of Service), DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service), Web Attack, Brute Force FTP, Brute Force SSH, Heartbleed, Infiltration and Botnet (Bot Network) Attack. The proposed model is trained using a 3-layer BP-DNN

Internet of things (IoT) has given a promising chance to construct amazing industrial frameworks and applications by utilizing wireless and sensor devices. To support IIoT benefits efficiently, fog computing is typically considered as one of the potential solutions. Be that as it may, IIoT services still experience issues such as high-latency and unreliable connections between cloud and terminals of IIoT. In addition to this, numerous security and privacy issues are raised and affect the users of the distributed computing environment. With an end goal to understand the improvement of IoT in industries, this chapter presents the current research of IoT along with the key enabling technologies. Further, the architecture and features of fog computing towards the fog-assisted IoT applications are presented. In addition to this, security and protection threats along with safety measures towards the IIoT applications are discussed.

AbstractThough a vast amount of dictionary analyses have been produced over the years, hardly any of these have mentioned the operative function, which has been overlooked in most lexicographical literature. With short analyses of 12 existing dictionaries ranging from the 18th century to the 21st century, this article shows that many dictionaries have indeed been produced to satisfy operative needs. Based on this result, it is clear that the operative function deserves a place in lexicographical theory. An interesting finding that came out of these analyses was that especially dictionaries from the 18th to the early 20th centuries (the old dictionaries) were written to accommodate several types of information needs that their users would come across in the real world, including operative needs, whereas the focus of most contemporary dictionaries is to satisfy linguistic information needs. This is an interesting change in focus, which this article criticises. Based on the above mentioned analyses, a number of questions are raised to guide future research into the operative function.

Nowadays, the integration of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and the Internet of Things (IoT) provides a great concern for the research community for enabling advanced services. An IoT network may comprise a large number of heterogeneous smart devices for gathering and forwarding huge data. Such diverse networks raise several research questions, such as processing, storage, and management of massive data. Furthermore, IoT devices have restricted constraints and expose to a variety of malicious network attacks. This paper presents a Secure Sensor Cloud Architecture (SASC) for IoT applications to improve network scalability with efficient data processing and security. The proposed architecture comprises two main phases. Firstly, network nodes are grouped using unsupervised machine learning and exploit weighted-based centroid vectors for the development of intelligent systems. Secondly, the proposed architecture makes the use of sensor-cloud infrastructure for boundless storage and consistent service delivery. Furthermore, the sensor-cloud infrastructure is protected against malicious nodes by using a mathematically unbreakable one-time pad (OTP) encryption scheme to provide data security. To evaluate the performance of the proposed architecture, different simulation experiments are conducted using Network Simulator (NS3). It has been observed through experimental results that the proposed architecture outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches in terms of network lifetime, packet drop ratio, energy consumption, and transmission overhead.

<div>Data collection is an essential part of sensor devices, particularly in such technologies Like Internet of Things (IoT), wireless sensor networks (WSN), and sensor cloud (SC). In recent years, various literature had been published in these research areas to propose different models, architectures, and contributions in the domains. Due to the importance of efficient data collection regarding reducing. energy consumption, latency, network lifetime, and general cost, a momentous literature volume has been published to facilitate data collection. Hence, review studies have been conducted on data collection in these domains in isolation. However, a lack of comprehensive review collectively identifies and analyzes the differences and similarities among the data collection proposals in IoT, WSN, and SC. The main objective of this research is to conduct a comprehensive survey to explore the current state, use cases, contributions, performance measures, evaluation measures, and architecture in the IoT, WSN, and SC research domains. The findings indicate that studies on data collection in IoT, WSN, and SC are relatively consistent with stable output in the last five years. Nine novel contributions are found with models, algorithms, and frameworks being the most utilized by the selected studies. In conclusion, key research challenges and future research directions have been identified and discussed.</div>
