Wide application of the Internet of Things (IoT) system has been increasingly demanding more hardware facilities for processing various resources including data, information, and knowledge. With the rapid growth of generated resource quantity, it is difficult to adapt to this situation by using traditional cloud computing models. Fog computing enables storage and computing services to perform at the edge of the network to extend cloud computing. However, there are some problems such as restricted computation, limited storage, and expensive network bandwidth in Fog computing applications. It is a challenge to balance the distribution of network resources. We propose a processing optimization mechanism of typed resources with synchronized storage and computation adaptation in Fog computing. In this mechanism, we process typed resources in a wireless-network-based three-tier architecture consisting of Data Graph, Information Graph, and Knowledge Graph. The proposed mechanism aims to minimize processing cost over network, computation, and storage while maximizing the performance of processing in a business value driven manner. Simulation results show that the proposed approach improves the ratio of performance over user investment. Meanwhile, conversions between resource types deliver support for dynamically allocating network resources.

The Internet Of Things

The internet of things (IoT) and cloud computing are two technologies which have recently changed both the academia and industry and impacted our daily lives in different ways. However, despite their impact, both technologies have their shortcomings. Though being cheap and convenient, cloud services consume a huge amount of network bandwidth. Furthermore, the physical distance between data source(s) and the data centre makes delays a frequent problem in cloud computing infrastructures. Fog computing has been proposed as a distributed service computing model that provides a solution to these limitations. It is based on a para-virtualized architecture that fully utilizes the computing functions of terminal devices and the advantages of local proximity processing. This paper proposes a multi-layer IoT-based fog computing model called IoT-FCM, which uses a genetic algorithm for resource allocation between the terminal layer and fog layer and a multi-sink version of the least interference beaconing protocol (LIBP) called least interference multi-sink protocol (LIMP) to enhance the fault-tolerance/robustness and reduce energy consumption of a terminal layer. Simulation results show that compared to the popular max–min and fog-oriented max–min, IoT-FCM performs better by reducing the distance between terminals and fog nodes by at least 38% and reducing energy consumed by an average of 150 KWh while being at par with the other algorithms in terms of delay for high number of tasks.

Cloud Users

The cloud-users are getting impatient by experiencing the delays in loading the content of the web applications over the internet, which is usually caused by the complex latency while accessing the cloud datacenters distant from the cloud-users. It is becoming a catastrophic situation in availing the services and applications over the cloud-centric network. In cloud, workload is distributed across the multiple layers which also increases the latency. Time-sensitive Internet of Things (IoT) applications and services, usually in a cloud platform, are running over various virtual machines (VM’s) and possess high complexities while interacting. They face difficulties in the consolidations of the various applications containing heterogenetic workloads. Fog computing takes the cloud computing services to the edge-network, where computation, communication and storage are within the proximity to the end-user’s edge devices. Thus, it utilizes the maximum network bandwidth, enriches the mobility, and lowers the latency. It is a futuristic, convenient and more reliable platform to overcome the cloud computing issues. In this manuscript, we propose a Fog-based Spider Web Algorithm (FSWA), a heuristic approach which reduces the delays time (DT) and enhances the response time (RT) during the workflow among the various edge nodes across the fog network. The main purpose is to trace and locate the nearest f-node for computation and to reduce the latency across the various nodes in a network. Reduction of latency will enhance the quality of service (QoS) parameters, smooth resource distribution, and services availability. Latency can be an important factor for resource optimization issues in distributed computing environments. In comparison to the cloud computing, the latency in fog computing is much improved.

The exponential growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology poses various challenges to the classic centralized cloud computing paradigm, including high latency, limited capacity, and network failure. Cloud computing and Fog computing carry the cloud closer to IoT computers in order to overcome these problems. Cloud and Fog provide IoT processing and storage of IoT items locally instead of sending them to the cloud. Cloud and Fog provide quicker reactions and better efficiency in conjunction with the cloud. Cloud and fog computing should also be viewed as the safest approach to ensure that IoT delivers reliable and stable resources to multiple IoT customers. This article discusses the latest in cloud and Fog computing and their convergence with IoT by stressing deployment's advantages and complexities. It also concentrates on cloud and Fog design and new IoT technologies, enhanced by utilizing the cloud and Fog model. Finally, transparent topics are addressed, along with potential testing recommendations for cloud storage and Fog computing, and IoT.

Cloud computing consists of three fundamental service models: infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a service and software-as-a-service. The technology “cloud computing” comprises four deployment models: public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud and community cloud. This chapter describes the six cloud service and deployment models, the association each of these services and models have with physical/virtual networks. Cloud service models are designed to power storage platforms, infrastructure solutions, provisioning and virtualization. Cloud computing services are developed to support shared network resources, provisioned between physical and virtual networks. These solutions are offered to organizations and consumers as utilities, to support dynamic, static, network and database provisioning processes. Vendors offer these resources to support day-to-day resource provisioning amid physical and virtual machines.

Safety Features

VANET, a type of MANET, connects vehicles to provide safety and non-safety features to the drivers and passengers by exchanging valuable data. As vehicles on road are increasing to handle such data cloud computing, functionality is merged with vehicles known as Vehicular Cloud Computing(VCC) to serve VANET with computation, storage, and networking functionalities. But Cloud, a centralized server, does not fit well for vehicles needing high-speed processing, low latency, and more security. To overcome these limitations of Cloud, Fog computing was evolved, extending the functionality of cloud computing model to the edge of the network. This works well for real time applications that need fast response, saves network bandwidth, and is a reliable, secure solution. An application of Fog is with vehicles known as Vehicular Fog Computing (VFC). This chapter discusses cloud computing technique and its benefits and drawbacks, detailed comparison between VCC and VFC, applications of Fog Computing, its security, and forensic challenges.
