Floods are one of the most frequently occurring natural disasters in Indonesia. It is therefore of special concern to reduce the risk of flood fatalities and other damage. The purpose of this study is to design a flood early warning system based on the Internet of Things (IoT). In this work, we use an ultrasonic HC-SR04 sensor to collect information about water levels. Further, we use an MCU8266 node as a microcontroller to analyze the sensor data and test it using a fuzzy inference system (FIS). To monitor the server activities, a Blink application is used as an iCloud IoT to hook up to smartphone devices. The test results show that all the devices function properly and that the system can classify water levels into normal, standby, alert, and danger categories in real time. Thus, the server can send information to the output device before a flood disaster occurs.

The recent increase in variety for wireless smart
devices and its corresponding applications can be directly related
to the increase in data traffic today. This level of generated traffic
is of growing concern to network operators who struggle to
provide network resources to users of such saturated networks.
In this paper, we consider a social community of devices
supported by a 5G-based Fog Radio Access Network (F-RAN)
architecture. Within each community, we see that users are only
inclined to share network resources with those of similar social
orientation rather than the entire network. Thus, we consider an
energy efficient user association problem for social community
aware networks in 5G. The problem is then analysed and solved
as a Linear Programming (LP) problem, which maximizes the
energy efficiency of the network under pre-determined Quality
of Service (QoS) constraints, giving priority to users with higher
social strength. The simulation results show that the proposed
algorithm obtains better energy efficiency when compared with
other baseline user association schemes.

The noise level of the construction site can be very dangerous as various sounds occur on the construction site. Ambient measurement is a prerequisite for identifying Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sound standard limits. Existing systems used to capture and measure sound using the Noise Level Meter tool at the construction site are limited to working hours only. Humans are required to assist devices at construction sites. Measuring noise using only noise level meters is very limited as devices need to be monitored at construction sites. Therefore, improvement is needed to measure ambient noise in construction site areas to address existing system limitations. Ambient Site Ambient Site Monitoring System (IoT) is developed to measure ambient noise throughout the day and provide real-time updates of current sound. Data is collected and stored on cloud servers using the Favoriot platform. Data analysis features are provided in a web-based system that allows users to take further action. If the recorded sound exceeds the specified limit, the system generates a warning notification. Web systems are also developed to retrieve data stored on the cloud server and users can perform analysis and reporting. Improvements to existing processes derived from this study are expected to benefit in monitoring site noise through efficient data collection, storage and analysis.

ABSTRACT Data and Internet services have become ubiquitous, and the recent trend of building massive cloud datacenters is part of the current network evolution. The success of Internet of Things (IoT) will not so much depend on the development of new technologies, but rather on connecting and integrating existing resources. The paper proposes a novel architecture that enables objects to exchange information through the Internet to achieve nonintrusive behavior and customized services based on an open source cloud platform. To achieve this goal, the information driven interactions are done not only in a peer to peer method, but also via advanced cloud services. The result is a generic platform where devices, systems and services will take part in a heterogeneous and decentralized architecture. We demonstrate that IoT is all about interoperability, from connected cloud computing using RFID, NFC, M2M and sensor technology to digital content and context-aware services. We conclude our cloud of things vision by expanding on the need for interoperability of cloud and IoT.

Internet of Things (IoT) is a novel wireless telecommunications paradigm that has emerged recently. This concept’s primary intention is to have permanent connectivity with various things or objects such as sensors, Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, mobile phones, etc. which, can communicate with each other. IoT devices spent most of their energy during transmitting and receiving messages. The energy-saving of IoT devices is to take care quick battery drain. The Less Energy Consumption Routing (LECR) technique used to minimize energy consumption in IoT. But, when two devices situated at a long distance try to communicate, take consumes a lot of energy due to Signal Transmission Range limitation. This paper proposes a Clustering Based Less Energy Consumption Routing (CB-LECR) Algorithm to tackle this problem. It is feasible to efficiently decrease the IoT network’s energy consumption by organizing IoT devices in clusters. Once the nodes categorized into clusters, Cluster Heads, cluster members (non-CHs) and cluster gateways identified. Results depict that the new work performs better than the LECR algorithm concerning energy saving and network lifetime for the IoT network.

In this paper we review studies of the growth of the Internet and technologies that are useful for information search and retrieval on the Web. Search engines are retrieve the efficient information. We collected data on the Internet from several different sources, e.g., current as well as projected number of users, hosts, and Web sites. The trends cited by the sources are consistent and point to exponential growth in the past and in the coming decade. Hence it is not surprising that about 85% of Internet users surveyed claim using search engines and search services to find specific information and users are not satisfied with the performance of the current generation of search engines; the slow retrieval speed, communication delays, and poor quality of retrieved results. Web agents, programs acting autonomously on some task, are already present in the form of spiders, crawler, and robots. Agents offer substantial benefits and hazards, and because of this, their development must invo...

Simeck, a lightweight block cipher has been proposed to be one of the encryption that can be employed in the Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Therefore, this paper presents the security of the Simeck32/64 block cipher against side-channel cube attack. We exhibit our attack against Simeck32/64 using the Hamming weight leakage assumption to extract linearly independent equations in key bits. We have been able to find 32 linearly independent equations in 32 key variables by only considering the second bit from the LSB of the Hamming weight leakage of the internal state on the fourth round of the cipher. This enables our attack to improve previous attacks on Simeck32/64 within side-channel attack model with better time and data complexity of 2 35 and 2 11.29 respectively.

The diverse applications of the internet of things (IoT) require adaptable routing protocol able to cope with several constraints. Thus, RPL protocol was designed to meet the needs for IoT networks categorized as low power and lossy networks (LLN). RPL uses an objective function based on specific metrics for preferred parents selection through these packets are sent to root. The single routing metric issue generally doesn't satisfy all routing performance requirements, whereas some are improved others are degraded. In that purpose, we propose a hybrid objective function with empirical stability aware (HOFESA), implemented in the network layer of the embedded operating system CONTIKI, which combines linearly three weighty metrics namely hop count, RSSI and node energy consumption. Also, To remedy to frequent preferred parents changes problems caused by taking into account more than one metric, our proposal relies on static and empirical thresholds. The designed HOFESA, evaluated under COOJA emulator against Standard-RPL and EC-OF, showed a packet delivery ratio improvement, a decrease in the power consumption, the convergence time and DIO control messages as well as it gives network stability through an adequate churn.

In this paper, we discuss the most significant application opportunities and outline the challenges in performing a real-time and energy-efficient management of the distributed resources available at mobile devices and Internet-to-Data Center. We also present an energy-efficient adaptive scheduler for Vehicular Fog Computing (VFC) that operates at the edge of a vehicular network, connected to the served Vehicular Clients (VCs) through an Infrastructure-to-Vehicular (I2V) over multiple Foglets (Fls). The scheduler optimizes the energy by leveraging the heterogeneity of Fls, where the Fl provider shapes the system workload by maximizing the task admission rate over data transfer and computation. The presented scheduling algorithm demonstrates that the resulting adaptive scheduler allows scalable and distributed implementation.

The European Agency for Safety and Health at Work considers Smart Personal Protective Equipment as “Intelligent Protection For The Future”. It mainly consists of electronic components that collect data about their use, the workers who wear them, and the working environment. This paper proposes a distributed solution of Smart Personal Protective Equipment for the safety monitoring of Lone Workers by adopting low-cost electronic devices. In addition to the same hazards as anyone else, Lone Workers need additional and specific systems due to the higher risk they run on a work site. To this end, the Edge-Computing paradigm can be adopted to deploy an architecture embedding wearable devices, which alerts safety managers when workers do not wear the prescribed Personal Protective Equipment and supports a fast rescue when a worker seeks help or an accidental fall is automatically detected. The proposed system is a work-in-progress which provides an architecture design to accommodate differ...
