In the Internet of Things era, users are willing to personalize the joint behavior of their connected entities, i.e., smart devices and online service, by means of trigger-action rules such as “IF the entrance Nest security camera detects a movement, THEN blink the Philips Hue lamp in the kitchen.” Unfortunately, the spread of new supported technologies makes the number of possible combinations between triggers and actions continuously growing, thus motivating the need of assisting users in discovering new rules and functionality, e.g., through recommendation techniques. To this end, we present , a semantic Conversational Search and Recommendation (CSR) system able to suggest pertinent IF-THEN rules that can be easily deployed in different contexts starting from an abstract user’s need. By exploiting a conversational agent, the user can communicate her current personalization intention by specifying a set of functionality at a high level, e.g., to decrease the temperature of a room when she left it. Stemming from this input, implements a semantic recommendation process that takes into account ( a ) the current user’s intention , ( b ) the connected entities owned by the user, and ( c ) the user’s long-term preferences revealed by her profile. If not satisfied with the suggestions, then the user can converse with the system to provide further feedback, i.e., a short-term preference , thus allowing to provide refined recommendations that better align with the original intention. We evaluate by running different offline experiments with simulated users and real-world data. First, we test the recommendation process in different configurations, and we show that recommendation accuracy and similarity with target items increase as the interaction between the algorithm and the user proceeds. Then, we compare with other similar baseline recommender systems. Results are promising and demonstrate the effectiveness of in recommending IF-THEN rules that satisfy the current personalization intention of the user.

The rising popularity of the Internet of Things (IoT) has led to a plethora of highly heterogeneous, geographically dispersed devices. In recent years, IoT platforms have been used to provide a variety of services to applications such as device discovery, context management, and data analysis. However, the lack of standardization currently means that each IoT platform comes with its own abstractions, APIs, and interactions. As a consequence, programming the interactions between an application and an IoT platform is often time consuming, error prone, and depends on the developers’ level of knowledge about the IoT platform. To address these issues, we propose offering to application developers on the client side the possibility to declare variables that are automatically mapped to sensors and whose values are transparently updated with sensor observations. For this purpose, we introduce IoTVar, a middleware between IoT applications and platforms. In IoTVar, all the necessary interactions with IoT platforms are managed by proxies. This paper presents IoTVar integrated with the FIWARE platform, which is used for developing IoT Future Internet applications. We also report results of some experiments performed to evaluate IoTVar, showing IoTVar reduces the effort required to declare and manage IoT variables and its impact in terms of CPU, memory, and energy.

The fourth industrial revolution represents smarter systems, faster and more optimized system of artificial intelligence, which involves control systems and sensors networks. In this paper, the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) was applied preliminarily to create the connection between machine and the user, using a sensor, a processor such as Raspberry Pi, and IoT platform application such as Blynk in the smartphone. The simple IR 4.0 prototype system and IoT apps were developed in order to create a connection between sensors and user through the internet consisting of a temperature and humidity sensor, which is DHT11 and a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. The smartphone application would be developed through the Blynk application for this simple prototype system. The graphical user interface GUI was built within the Blynk app and link it to the sensor which is already connected to the Raspberry Pi. The analysis that was done upon the system is by varying the stimuli to the sensors, which is a hairdryer with three levels of heat and observe the relative change of the reading of temperature and percentage of humidity on the apps. Therefore, the preliminary result shows an increase in temperature as the heat level increases. On the other hand, the percentage of humidity becomes lower as the temperature goes higher. Based on the results and the analysis, it had shown that the IR 4.0 prototype system of IoT monitoring can connect between the sensor and the smartphone application with real-time monitoring through the internet.

Internet of things (IoT) devices have become increasingly popular in recent years. IoT refers to smart refrigerators, smart locks, video nannies, and other household devices that have access to the Internet. However, the growing popularity of IoT technology is increasingly attracting the attention of hackers who are interested both in disclosing confidential enduser data and in misuse of the computing resources of the attacked devices. Unfortunately, malicious attacks often result in successful compromise of devices, with the ensuing consequences. The reasons for the high level of compromise of IoT devices are caused both by errors in the design, implementation, and relatively simple operation with the use of various information security audit tools. To identify defects in the development and implementation of devices, you need to have some idea about them, that is, to identify and eliminate them in a timely manner. This can be achieved in various ways. One of these methods is to create special traps that collect information about the activity of an attacker, called honeypot. The essence of the honeypot technology is to emulate or implement the functionality of existing devices, services, and protocols, with the accumulation of data about malicious activity of an attacker. The information obtained can be used to improve the protection of real devices, services, and protocols, as well as to develop measures to counter hackers. The article provides a comparative analysis of the existing most popular honeypot systems in order to identify the best system. The analysis identified both the weaknesses and strengths of these systems. Next, an attempt is made to adapt these same systems to function at the level of Internet of things devices.
