“…Due to many application domains and heterogeneous entities communicating with one another using varied protocols, there are many standards for IoT architecture that leads to the challenges in designing the IoTapplications. e resource-constrained diverse mobiles and other devices resulted in the QoS concern [28]. e QoS in an IoT application is constrained by heterogeneity, resourceconstrained devices, collaboration with hardware, natural human interfaces, networked mobility and volatile connectivity, embedded and adaptive devices, and design to monitor IoT devices [14].…”

Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure connects consumer electronics, household appliances, and other smart gadgets. For designing IoT systems and applications, different architectures and protocols are being used. The design quality of an IoT system and its services is assessed with quality of service (QoS) factors such as complexity, functional appropriateness, performance, efficiency, compatibility, maintainability, portability, and usability. The existing methods in the literature focus on measuring the quality of an IoT system during execution time; however, there is a need to define some standards that may be used to determine the quality of an IoT system from its design. This work models the IoT EcoSystem as a schema graph and presents a suite of metrics to determine the design quality of an IoT system and its services under the defined QoS factors. The presented metrics are mapped to the ISO-9126 QoS factors to ensure the standards and quality of IoT services during the design phase. The proposed metrics are validated with benchmarking on a case study smart healthcare IoT system. The results proved that the presented metrics are practical to quantify the quality of IoT design models under QoS factors, and the suite of metrics is able to compare differently designed IoT services.

“…Clearly Quality of Service (QoS) is an important issue in using MANETs in the IoT and recent research is suggesting 'best practice' QoS models for use with the IoT that would be compatible with most conceivable MANETs operating in a real-time environment [30]. Communications between smart wireless devices in a healthcare application using the IoT may involve a local wireless sensor network (WSN), wide area 3G and/or 4G communications and an IP routing network.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) in healthcare and medical applications promises to solve many problems which are currently challenging the sector, ranging from remotely caring for our aging population to medical discoveries on incurable diseases. However, the challenges and risks of having 50 billion Things and users connected together are complex and may be detrimental to control. Concerns have been raised in relation to the IoT Identification Management (IDM) issues, in which each Thing (user and device) will be required to have a unique identity, and the IDM to be able to distinguish between a device and user, as well as ensuring identity and information context safety. This paper examines the underlying issues behind IDM and proposes a framework which aims to achieve the identification of Things and their safe management. The IDM framework is embedded in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) and assumes that most healthcare devices will be linked wirelessly and in mobile environments. The paper aims to open a research debate which will help to solve the future IoT IDM issues in healthcare applications.
