Virtual Sensor Middleware: A Middleware For Managing Iot Data For The Fog-Cloud Platform, Fadi Almahamid
Virtual Sensor Middleware: A Middleware For Managing Iot Data For The Fog-Cloud Platform, Fadi Almahamid
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Internet of Things is a massively growing field where billions of devices are connected to the Internet using different protocols and produce an enormous amount of data. The produced data is consumed and processed by different applications to make operations more efficient. Application development is challenging, especially when applications access sensor data since IoT devices use different communication protocols.
The existing IoT architectures address some of these challenges. This thesis proposes an IoT Middleware that provides applications with the abstraction required of IoT devices while distributing the processing of sensor data to provide a real-time or near real-time response and …

A Mobile Cyber-Physical System Framework For Aiding People With Visual Impairment, Martin Goldberg
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
It is a challenging problem for researchers and engineers in the assistive technology (AT) community to provide suitable solutions for visually impaired people (VIPs) through AT to meet orientation, navigation and mobility (ONM) needs. Given the spectrum of assistive technologies currently available for the purposes of aiding VIPs with ONM, our literature review and survey have shown that there is a reluctance to adopt these technological solutions in the VIP community.
Motivated by these findings, we think it critical to re-examine and rethink the approaches that have been taken. It is our belief that we need to take a different …
Securing Our Future Homes: Smart Home Security Issues And Solutions, Nicholas Romano
Securing Our Future Homes: Smart Home Security Issues And Solutions, Nicholas Romano
Senior Honors Theses
The Internet of Things, commonly known as IoT, is a new technology transforming businesses, individuals’ daily lives and the operation of entire countries. With more and more devices becoming equipped with IoT technology, smart homes are becoming increasingly popular. The components that make up a smart home are at risk for different types of attacks; therefore, security engineers are developing solutions to current problems and are predicting future types of attacks. This paper will analyze IoT smart home components, explain current security risks, and suggest possible solutions. According to “What is a Smart Home” (n.d.), a smart home is a …
Agent-Based Iot Coordination For Smart Cities Considering Security And Privacy, Iván García-Magariño, Geraldine Gray, Rajarajan Muttukrishnan, Waqar Asif
Agent-Based Iot Coordination For Smart Cities Considering Security And Privacy, Iván García-Magariño, Geraldine Gray, Rajarajan Muttukrishnan, Waqar Asif
Conference papers
The interest in Internet of Things (IoT) is increasing steeply, and the use of their smart objects and their composite services may become widespread in the next few years increasing the number of smart cities. This technology can benefit from scalable solutions that integrate composite services of multiple-purpose smart objects for the upcoming large-scale use of integrated services in IoT. This work proposes an agent-based approach for supporting large-scale use of IoT for providing complex integrated services. Its novelty relies in the use of distributed blackboards for implicit communications, decentralizing the storage and management of the blackboard information in the …
