A comprehensive review of internet of things: technology stack, middlewares, and fog/edge computing interface.

research papers on iot applications

1. Introduction

  • A comprehensive insight into IoT technology stack, adaptation and growth trends.
  • The detailed investigation of IoT Functional blocks at every layer (referred to as horizontal fabric), state-of-the-art research corresponding these elements, and the associated challenges.
  • The characterization of Middleware, enterprise platforms and integration challenges for enterprise solutions (referred to as vertical markets).
  • Future directions to optimize the IoT Technology Stack and its integration with enterprise systems.
  • Interfacing Fog/Edge network to extend coverage, convergence and deployment scope for IoT networks.
  • State-of-the-art research in Fog/Edge networks, open challenges and directions towards IoT interfacing, thus enhancing application of vertical markets.

2. Research Design

Research questions.

  • What is the current state of IoT technology stack (referred to as horizontal fabric) and application scenario (referred to as vertical markets)? This question aims to identify the current state-of-the-art of IoT technology, growth trends, associated challenges and the range of applications and domains.
  • What is the impact of utilizing middlewares in existing enterprise IoT applications? This question allowed us to classify the current state of middlewares currently being deployed for enterprise applications.
  • What are the current technological and integration challenges, and how can the current technology stack be optimized? This question focuses on the integration effect, feasibility, and scope of these IoT application domains. It further aims at providing gaps and solutions to optimize the IoT technology stack from a layered perspective.
  • How can Fog/Edge networks extend the capabilities of current IoT applications? This question is aimed at investigating the current state of Fog/Edge networks and the possibilities of extending these services to IoT deployments.

3. IoT Market Growth by Industry Sectors

4. iot architectures, platforms and technology stack, 5. understanding iot functional blocks, 5.1. identification, 5.2. sensing, 5.3. communication, 5.4. compute, 5.5. services, 5.6. semantics and analytics, 6. characterizing middlewares for the iot, 7. iot stack optimization.

  • First: complete vendor dependability to deploy one-off application solely run and managed by the vendors in the cloud;
  • Intermediary: on-premise solution deployment managed by end business as well as vendors. Thus, opens room for expansion and optimization;
  • Mature: an end-to-end ecosystem either deployed on-premise, on-cloud or a hybrid solution that demands a complete optimization of the entire IoT stack.

8. Fog/Edge Computing: Technological Advancements, Integration Challenges and Edge-Enabled Vertical Markets

  • Reduced network latency;
  • Enhanced compute, storage and network capacity;
  • Increased network bandwidth;
  • An overall increase in system response time;
  • Privacy and node-aware security;
  • Fault-tolerance and mitigation at node level;
  • Energy conservation by reducing the amount of data sent to the cloud;
  • Network robustness—by improving the network hierarchy.

ParameterNatureImpact
Characteristics of IoT Infrastructure
HeterogeneityMulti-vendor, multi-capability
devices
from low-cost to high-end,
capable of performing heavy work
Making resources/environment dynamic, thus
adding complexity for middleware to support
interoperability
Resource ConstraintsSmall size, low power, small memory
and computing capabilities
An additional challenge to implement
the middleware software layer
Spontaneous InteractionM2M communication, real-time
event triggers
Automated, real-time, machine to machine
interactions may require a system that is
ubiquitous and requires no human
intervention
Ultra large-scale NetworksUltra-large number of events in
multiples of billions every day
Event congestion, resource exhaustion, added
data backups and event aggregation workload
Dynamic Network
Conditions
Mesh, Ad-hoc, cellular networks or
in some cases relay gateways for
long-distance connectivity
Inadequate or disconnected network link
outages may result in truncated, duplicated or
lost data, which requires self-adjusting software
to account for transmissions over such networks
Context-aware applicationSpatial and temporal context from
sensing nodes
Requires adaptive and autonomous behavior in
software stack to analyze and interpret the data
Characteristics of IoT Applications
DiversityApplications range from event-driven
to time-driven IoT domains
Added complexity for middleware to adapt to
different application deployments providing
multiple services, such as: transportation and
logistics, that deploy the same hardware
but demand different services
Real-timeApplications range from mission
critical to time-critical IoT domains
Real-time application deployments such as
in health-care, would demand an added layer of
reliability and data integrity
SecurityGlobal connectivity versus open
attack surface
Small computing capability, device and network
heterogeneity
and a provision for global access adds
complexity for middleware to mitigate
security threats
PrivacyPersonal versus critical dataIoT applications may contain data from
health-care, financial, internal stocks to
industrial deployments. The data privacy acts
vary from region to region, thus adding another
complexity for middleware to provide
flexibility to comply with data protection acts
