A Service-Oriented Approach for Sensing in the Internet of Things: Intelligent Transportation Systems and Privacy Use Cases

Abstract

This paper presents a Sensing-as-a-Service run-time Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), called 3SOA, for the development of Internet of Things (IoT) applications. 3SOA aims to allow interoperability among various IoT platforms and support service-oriented modelling at high levels of abstraction where fundamental SOA theories and techniques are fully integrated into a practical software engineering approach. 3SOA abstracts the dependencies of the middleware programming model from the application logic. This abstraction allows the development efforts to focus on writing the application logic independently from hardware platforms, middleware, and languages in which applications are programmed. To achieve this result, IoT objects are treated as independent entities that may interact with each other using a well-defined message exchange sequence. Each object is defined by the services it provides and the coordination protocol it supports. Objects are then able to coordinate their resources to address the global objectives of the system. To practically validate our proposals, we demonstrate an intelligent transportation system and data privacy functional prototypes as proof of concepts. The use cases show that 3SOA and the presented abstraction language allow the amalgamation of macroprogramming and node-centric programming to develop real-time and efficient applications over IoT.

Hybrid Deep Learning for Botnet Attack Detection in the Internet-of-Things Networks

“…N OWADAYS, critical infrastructures such as power generation [1]- [4], communications [5]- [7], healthcare [8]- [10], manufacturing [11]- [13], transportation [14], [15], water treatment [16] and agriculture [17], [18] are interconnected in order to tap into the various benefits of the Internet of Things (IoT) [19]- [21]. The increased inter-connectivity and the use of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) renders smart critical infrastructures vulnerable to cyberattacks from terrorists or "hacktivists".…”

“…[62] recommended holistic innovative security by design-based approach combining specific policies and best practice capabilities with specific technical countermeasures aimed at specific technology stacks to overcome security threats of IoT applications. Incorporating privacy-by-design into the build of IoT devices is the way forward to safeguard data privacy [82]. Skills shortage, issues with managing the enormous data accumulated through IoT devices and the lack of standardization and Interoperability were discussed.…”

A flexible encryption technique for the internet of things environment

“…Numerous research works have been recently carried out to provide encryption techniques pertinent to the IoT context. They address the inherent resource limitations of IoT devices that make it difficult to apply conventional encryption algorithms that require a significant amount of resources for their operation [20]. Several researchers cope with the resource limitation challenge by proposing lightweight encryption techniques to provide efficient and secure communication with reasonable resource utilisation.…”
