Rapid popularity of Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing permits neuroscientists to collect multilevel and multichannel brain data to better understand brain functions, diagnose diseases, and devise treatments. To ensure secure and reliable data communication between end-to-end (E2E) devices supported by current IoT and cloud infrastructure, trust management is needed at the IoT and user ends. This paper introduces a Neuro-Fuzzy based Brain-inspired trust management model (TMM) to secure IoT devices and relay nodes, and to ensure data reliability. The proposed TMM utilizes node behavioral trust and data trust estimated using Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System and weighted-additive methods respectively to assess the nodes trustworthiness. In contrast to the existing fuzzy based TMMs, the NS2 simulation results confirm the robustness and accuracy of the proposed TMM in identifying malicious nodes in the communication network. With the growing usage of cloud based IoT frameworks in Neuroscience research, integrating the proposed TMM into the existing infrastructure will assure secure and reliable data communication among the E2E devices.
The Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) demands massive and smart connectivity, huge bandwidth, lower latency with ultra-high data rate and better quality of healthcare experience. Unlike the 5G wireless network, the upcoming 6G communication system is expected to provide Intelligent IoHT (IIoHT) services everywhere at any time to improve the quality of life of the human being. In this paper, we present the framework of 6G cellular networks, its aggregation with multidimensional communication techniques such as optical wireless communication network, cell-free communication system, backhaul network, and quantum communication, as well as distributed security paradigm in the context of IIoHT. Such low latency and ultra-high-speed communication network will provide a new paradigm for connecting homes to hospitals, healthcare people, medical devices, hospital infrastructure, etc. Also, the requirements of 6G wireless networking, other key techniques, challenges and research direction of deploying IIoHT are outlined in the article.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
