“…We have selected three case studies with different purposes and from different sources: Ecological Island , Terminal Self‐Service, and distributed event‐driven network monitoring evaluation prototype (DENMEvaP) . These case studies were chosen as they demonstrate how CEP can derive more meaningful events from IoT device‐to‐cloud event streams, rather than simply routing events to endpoints by attributes as done in the Microsoft Azure IoT Hub .…”

Evolutionary mutation testing for IoT with recorded and generated events

Mutation testing is a testing technique that has been applied successfully to several programming languages. Despite its benefits for software testing, the high computational cost of mutation testing has kept it from being widely used. Several refinements have been proposed to reduce its cost by reducing the number of generated mutants; one of those is evolutionary mutation testing (EMT). Evolutionary mutation testing aims at generating a reduced set of mutants with an evolutionary algorithm, which searches for potentially equivalent and difficult to kill mutants that help improve the test suite. Evolutionary mutation testing has been evaluated in two contexts so far, ie, web service compositions and object-oriented C++ programmes. This study explores its performance when applied to event processing language queries of various domains. This study also considers the impact of the test data, since a lack of events or the need to have specific values in them can hinder testing. The effectiveness of evolutionary mutation testing with the original test data generators and the new internet of things test event generator tool is compared in multiple case studies.

The concept of smart cities is seen as a key strategy to mitigate the problems generated by the rapid urbanization. Within the smart cities umbrella, the so-called smart mobility has been subject of considerable research. The systematic review reported by this article aimed to identify the most relevant applications supported by smart cities’ infrastructure with an impact in urban logistic transports. A total of 39 articles were retrieved, and the results show that the main application areas are related to solid waste management and the routing of logistic fleets, namely, to improve the last mile logistics.

“…IoT can be defined, in general terms, as an extension of traditional computer networks, in which devices and gadgets capable of sensing, computing, and communicating are used. Several types of smart objects can be used in a collaborative approach to build a system for smart cities, improve decision-making with real-time information, and apply algorithms to solve mathematical problems instantly [2,3,21].…”

Increasing complexity in municipal solid waste streams worldwide is pressing Solid Waste Management Systems (SWMS), which need solutions to manage the waste properly. Waste collection and transport is the first task, traditionally carried out by countries/municipalities responsible for waste management. In this approach, drivers are responsible for decision-making regarding collection routes, leading to inefficient resource expenses. In this sense, strategies to optimize waste collection routes are receiving increasing interest from authorities, companies and the scientific community. Works in this strand usually focus on waste collection route optimization in big cities, but small towns could also benefit from technological development to improve their SWMS. Waste collection is related to combinatorial optimization that can be modeled as the capacitated vehicle routing problem. In this paper, a Capacitated Waste Collection Problem will be considered to evaluate the performance of metaheuristic approaches in waste collection optimization in the city of Bragança, Portugal. The algorithms used are available on Google ORtools, an open-source tool with modules for solving routing problems. The Guided Local Search obtained the best results in optimizing waste collection planning. Furthermore, a comparison with real waste collection data showed that the results obtained with the application of OR-Tools are promising to save resources in waste collection.
